Post by: Paulj79 on Tuesday, 04 September 2018, 09:26 AM
Bike seems very restricted with power delivery since the plugs were changed in local garage?

Welcome to the forum! As a new member it would be nice if you could do a bit of an intro on yourself and what 14 you own in the introductions section.

But to get to your problem....What plugs did they fit? And did you have any other work carried out at the same time?

As barmy says it would be good to pop in to the bar and say hello and bit about you and your 14 also where you are as another orgster might be able to help you.

Did the dealer only change the plugs as some after market air filters can restrict the bikes a fair bit too.

:cheers:

He's in Wales, so Notty will be right round the corner from him no doubt.

Gidday Paulj79, give us a bit more info on it.  As Dave said, did they change anything else? Chain, brakes, air filter? In what way does it feel restricted? Sound? Acceleration? Missing, sluggish & no pickup?


You didn't just get off a Ducati 1200 or B-King loaner did you?  That'll make the 14 seem restricted.    Come on, give us a bit to go on then?
