Hello all! I have had my 99 Bullet 500 for about 3 months now and love it, but am having some persistent problems with it that someone here might be able to share some insight on.
Mainly, it is running so rich, it blackens and burns out a plug in about a month. It also backfires, sputters, and occasionally stalls on me. Is this the fault of the carb? I have played with the adjustment a little, but do I need to pull it and clean it? Or is something else the culprit? I have played with different grades of gas as well, thinking that might have some bearing - but no good.
Any advice available from those of you more knowledgeable would really be appreciated. I love riding this thing, but it is driving me crazy too. Thanks!
