A plug chop is a faster way of getting the reading you are looking for.If your still running the oil pump yeah maybe a plug chop to make sure your mix is consistant maybe.IMO there is not enouph run time on that plug to read it.I really dont want to get into it.If a plug chop was so vital to read your plug than why dont they pute this in the owners manual or service repair guide.I believe these guys are pretty smart.I just dont go threw all that.If my plug has white ash then we know its too lean with out having to cut into it.And if there is something I dont know well then I have the repair manual to look the sh*t up.All you guys are so quick to just say whats the plug chop when there are so many other things to consider.If my sh*t is lean Ill feel the heet inbetween my legs the lack of smoke comming out the exhaust and change in performance given these simptoms and the variation of load I have on this kids toy.Some one with some brains and no how dont go strait for whats the plug chop.If your running the correct mix and your plug is dark tan and perfromance is good tuned to the feel of the way you ride then ride the damn thing.If your doing crazy mods and experimenting with mix ratios yeah chop it as waiting to get an accurate reading is not ideal.
Yes sures I do do this on my bikes My last top end rebuild was more than 10 years ago and it still runs strong.Its not rocket science.There is nothing hitech about this machine its pretty basic.
Im not a troll.I just dont understand why I get bashed for not doing a plug chop.Im not bashing people for doing plug chops its a way of reading your plug.Just everyone goes strait for the chop.Really this is something they do in hotrods at the drag strip where there is no oil mix and there not running unleaded either.
