I have a MK III with a single Mikuni carb. I finally figured out it had the wrong intake mainfold and jetting. I have since put on a proper one to two intake manifold and rejetted the carb. After sitting for several months ( I have been injured) it started first kick. That makes me think I am on the right track.
The ceramic on plug I was fuel fouling is now a light tan, just like the other side. I noticed the new pipes are turing a bit golden color at the first bend from the head. Are these the proper color for plugs and pipes?
By the way, thanks for all the advice I have been given during this year long project. About all I have left to do on this bike is have the fenders polished and get the back end of the frame, where it holds up the rear fender straightened a bit. I think a prior owner used a gorilla to tighten up some tie-down straps.
