First thing though is pull your fuel cap and make sure...

    Amsoil

    I also noticed alot of gunk coming out of the exhaust. I even might switch to castrol or something not sure yet. I know i don't really want to mix it at 50:1 i don't think if thats what it takes to get rid of the gunk. I have too much money in the motor to go blow it up. imagine what inside the...

It will help a lot by taking out the extra flex in the long cable and put more pull into the rear brake. they sell short cable brake lines that run only from rear brake lever to brake caliper. I installed on mine and...
