Default New Here,

Hey all,

New to this site, new to the HD world. Just bought myself a 1987 FXRC. The price was decent so I said what the hell.
Triple clamps are Aftermarket, Fat boy rear wheel, tank has been changed, Custom paint ( which will be soon changed by myself),
forward controls, Hypercharger, Bub's pipes ( loud as hell!!), The guy I bought it off of seems to think the cam was changed as well.

Love the bike, handles well, but I have one concern. I have been fouling plugs like crazy! We took the carb apart and everything seemed to be ok. I know that the bike was not rejetted after the Hypercharger was installed. Also The carb is off of a '91.
Anyone have any suggestions for me?

Thanx in advance,
