dicovered this after going for a sunny afternoon ride ,halway to the bar and bike starts to loose power and wont pull.
idles fine but under load bogs down.
pullover ,feels like gas starving, sparks on all cylinders,,plugs were a lttle oily but not bad, change out to new plugs same deal ,
turnaround start for home 2 miles down the road it revs to the moon.
turn it off pull over and the pin in the sldie has vibbed out and center slide is stuck wide open.
push it back in and carry on home.

Probably just the angle of the picture, but those plugs look like long reach, rather than 1/2" reach?. And are they 7's?? Too hot for triple use for throttle- on work. Just being cautious here!! :?
