Two things painter,
1) The leg shields can make tuning the carbs a bit more difficult, as you may have already discovered.
2) There is only one 'n' in Duane!

Greetings Painter, glad to see you've arrived on these 'ere hallowed pages, and bearing a mystery to boot (if indeed that is what one does with a mystery).
What makes a perfectly good plug go bad ?
Is it environmental, societal, or a bit of metal swarf clogging the contacts?
A fragment of piston ring quelling the essential fire?
Sounds like you're savvy enough to have gazed at the offending gap, so I'm assuming any foreign object would have been spotted. That makes it difficult.
So how are the legshields ?
Sunbeem.

There is only one "n" in my name, but many with two "n's" in them. Go to

Of course, mine is the correct way.

There is only ONE way to spell "Duane." There are, however, at least 105 ways to misspell Duane.

Bin called many things ,a good spellr is jist not 1 Put new set of nkg,s in last night and went for a good hour putt. No problems. Guess I will not worry unless it happens again. Sunbeam , looked closely and saw no foreign debris. I am assuming that it just had a bad disposition. Love the leg shields. Can really appreciate them in the spring and fall here in eastern Pennsylvania. I also think they look pretty keen

Plus leg shields look a lot more studly than if you were riding a scooter to keep your knees warm.

Hi Dave! It took me a second to make the connection! Glad you made it!
Everyone, meet Dave's airhead!
aux gas tanks, a R60 you must have some kind for range on that baby!

Dave bought a spare set of leg shields from me and made the brackets himself.
Did some nice painting on them, too.
Dave, due to your "handle", I assume you did all of this fine paint work yourself?
