I can't find my owner's manual. I have installed a BC air box eliminator, Thunder-bike slip-ons, Nology coil. I have yet to install the spark plugs and the Nology spark plug wires. Does anybody know what what the gap of the plugs should be? If you have installed Nology wires, where did you attach the ground wires? Did anyone who installed the BC air box eliminator have to trim the right side cover to fit the K&N filter? :hammer:

From what i read once it sounded like you MUST ground the plug wire straps. Can't recall why, but i do recall it being necessary to insure they don't go bad. I see no reason to risk it in case that is true, so i made sure to ground them. I attached them with the bolts from the AI valve i removed if i recall correctly, tho it's been a while. Plug gap should be .031 to .035, or .8 to .9 mm.
