1997 Buell M2

[TheDude]

Just bought this M2 and am new to Buell. Love the power and performance thus far but have some minor issues, wondering if anyone has suggestions.

#1- There is some play in the throttle where as I need to turn the throttle about 1/8 turn to get any acceleration....any thoughts? Is this a cable or a throttle assembly issue or can adjustments be made?

#2 Anyu recommendation on plugs to use? I hear the HD plugs arent that good.

Thanks all!

The throttle cable adjustment will fix the play issue, but you might have to replace it if it is at the end of adjustment. the plugs I use are the Accel u groove, but NGK are a very good brand, and most any platinum tip will help. our bike don't have the fouling issues of the fuel injected bikes so they are more forgiving on plug selection.
