If anybody cares to comment about my earlier question concerning the imbalance of exhaust pulse between the two mufflers, don't hold back!
Compression imbalance? Or one plug sparking better under compression? How's the mixture for each side? Try swapping the plugs over.

FOR IMBALANCE OF EXHAUST PLUSE PLEASE CALL ME. ..............lm
Loudo wrote:Went for a 9 mile ride at lunch, about a half hour of riding. Took it up to 50 on the state route, all the gears seem fine. After the ride, there were a few drops of oil here and there. Of more concern, the centerstand was coated with oil and there were signs of oil being lightly sprayed onto the right side of the rear wheel hub. I'm wondering if the chain is throwing this oil around or if it is leaking from somewhere and the wind at speed is driving it onto these other surfaces.

I don't know what I'd do with myself if I didn't have a new problem to troubleshoot.

How about a quick explanation LM! I had this same issue before I tore my superhawk back down for paint. Figured I would sort it out later - sure would be nice to know what to look out for!

Thanks,

Byrd

It's usually one carb slide is lower than the other and ya need to tuen the colder one in a half turn at a atime and as the engine speeds up turn the other out a half turn until the engine is running smooth. ............lm
