    All 4 plugs have been replaced (which was a fucking pain in the ass... thanks Honda..,) and I used almost an entire can of carb cleaner to remove all that nasty gunk and shit that was built up in there. Bike goes back together today - we'll see if I made it better or worse.

    Ho. Ly. Shit.

    The bike is a whole new machine now. No more dead spots in 2nd gear... no more hesitation off the line... and even the idle sounds much more pissed off. I LOVE it!
