The bike has still been sitting since I changed the plugs since I haven't had a chance to ride yet. Well being 70F here today and I found the rest of my tools (boot remover and gap tester), I lifted the tank off again and removed the plugs to check the gap. Also, with the help of the Lisle boot remover, it was all a breeze.
The gap on the plugs coming right out of the box ranged from 0.028" all the way to 0.042", and the spec is 0.031" to 0.035".

re: "it squeaks and “puffs” with each intake stroke"
you have to realize your providing such easy material to work with right!

Well, after two years and almost 20,000 miles I'm ready to bite the bullet on Legends Revo-A shocks. I'm wishing I would have bought these a few months ago instead of a Discount ESP!!!
Question: I'll be going to Sturgis again this year. Does Legends offer up any steep discounts during the rally?

Thanks, Dan. I've got Myrtle Beach bike week coming up here in a week so I'll check things out there first. If all they ever do is just free install, I'll pull the trigger now and do it. If they'll have bigger savings in Sturgis I'll wait.

Lol I do appreciate the advice. I’m living in Augusta, GA for the year and figure while I’m out here I’ll stop by the rally since it’s only a couple hours. I’ve been heading to the beach every few weeks so it won’t really be a waste of time if it sucks.
