Oil Soot From Baffle.
Posted: 09:18 pm May 01 2005
OK, I know I can't be the only one with this problem, but I get an excessive amount of that black oil soot out of the baffle. It's so bad that it runs down the full length of the baffle and drips onto the swing arm. It's getting rather annoying. So whats the deal? Why's it do this? It did'nt do it on my old '84 KDx and I mixed the fuel/oil ratio the same @ 32:1 ratio. The plug is alittle dark but nothing that jumps out at you saying it's way to rich. The bike runs great, and I'm going to drop the jetting after it warms up and stays that way. What can I do to get this fixed, any ideas? My baffle does'nt seem to be "baffling" the sound very well anymore either, it has deffinitley gotten louder.
