    Unhappy My big red burned out sparkplug

    hello, I have a trouble with my trikes. I burned is spark plug after 3-4 rides.

    I think its a carb trouble because I have a after market pipe (cobra) (because the stock was broken). So Went I put the pipe I have a lot of difficulty to adjust the carb (with the clymer book). I think its the needle but im not sure. Also I have the stock jet in the carb.



    Help please !!!

    post closeups of the plug - I doubt putting a cobra on made it run rich, unless it was rejetted to run on a busted pipe. is your air filter clean?

    RE-jet, You always have to change your jetting with a different pipe.
