Of late I've only used the '95 for short runs to store say, couple miles at most so it really never gets a chance to fully warm up - many cold starts vs. the long daily runs. What i need to do is migrate it to the fishing shack - the tw200 lives in the new shed but it's easy to ride up the ramp not so sure about the savage it might be low enough to rub on the top of ramp - that could sure ruin your day if it hit bottom - a 4 foot fall off the ramp and out the door wouldn't be any fun.
back to the plug I just don't believe these hitech ir plugs function very well used like this - likely they're better suited to high rpms where their lower arc voltage could be helpful - wouldn't take the ing as long to recover and longer runs to keep the cold start soot burned off.
any way poped one of champions in it that I used for plug reading - man does it ever start and run better.
Ahhh, length of run, not time between runs. I can see that a lot easier.
A 4' drop isnt much of a big deal, if a guy gets to walk to the edge & hop off, but getting "spit" off sideways with a motorsickel atween the legs? Ehhhh, thats a Long 4 feet.
