Dirty front spark plug

Post by carnivore »

Well it were only a matter of time before some thing went amiss with the raptor, than fully it wasn't serious, water and muck in the front pots spark plug tunnel lifted the ht lead off.
Any ideas on cleaning this tunnel out as it looked like this bike has been used for moto x at some stage.
Anyway after cleaning up the old spark plug it went back onto both cylinders ,than god.
where's the bar?

A while back back Raptordoc (when he was still working as cagiva mechaniac) added a 'skirt' of rubber fabric - part of a car mud flap I think - to the back of my radiator - attached to the lower rad brackets and hanging down over the front pot - It's made a world of difference to the front spark problems when riding in the rain.


I said this before and still didnt take a pic of it - I will try --->>>>. <finding camera> brb :D
