Thanks for making this thread about changing the front fork oil! Makes me not dread it as much when I decide to do it.
I think the manual says that the spark plug is supposed to be light brown, not grey. I could be wrong though. I put my manual under the seat of my bike and I don't feel like running out there right now to look at it, lol. I'll do it tomorrow.
And yea, thats where my oil was leaking too. My buddy told me that it is normal and that its from the blow-by. Normally its minimal enough that it just burns right threw, but sometimes it gets built up. The hose thing that goes from my air box to the carb is leaking the oil onto carb and engine...which is that yellow haze I was talking about in a different thread.
Let us know how the new muffle sounds! I wouldn't mind making mine sound beefier.
