Too rich, too lean, just right?
 

Took my first long (300 mile) sustained ride yesterday since Ive done the winter mods. Ive got a K&N filter, sikpipe diesels with DK thunder torques and VIEDs cranked up about 3/4s on both front and rear cylinders. I noticed this at the end of the ride. Is one too rich the other too lean, one just right? Before all the super technos start spouting off about its all bandaids and guessing........Im ok with guessing, Im not going to the moon so me and my bike will be just fine.

Did you pull the plugs to see it they are different?

that would be my first guess as well. How does it sound at idle? are both cylinders firing consistently? I know I have to run my rear cylinder with a closer gap on it.

Nope, havent pulled the plugs. If the plugs look similar to the pipes does that mean the rear is running rich? Or is the front running lean? And it seems to be idling fine.

I have absolutely nothing to contribute to your problem, but I wanted to say that every time I see a picture of your bike I think "Damn, that's badass!"

That must be a neat trick. How do you close the recommended gap of .040 by .5?

And yes, read the plugs, not the pipes.

to err is to human ;) thanks for the correction, once again. Apparently your breakdown of the speed of light is correct!

Ok, Ill do nothing till I read the plugs.

Your bike is screwed. Better just let me take it off your hands....

Bahahha.......I think your right. Ill deliver it to ya. Is hotdog near LA? (Lower Alabama)
