      Problem Solved!

      Firstly, I sincerely thank everyone participated in this thread for guiding me to sort this choke problem. I just changed the spark plug from NGK Iridium to the stock NGK
      BP8HS plug. And Voila! the Gun rocketed to 115kmph at a rocking acceleration that too with a pillion (payload~140kg). I personally feel that the 5 speed gearbox has effected in a better acceleration than the 4 speed Shogun. I am quite thrilled at this very moment. Thanks a ton people. Will let you know its solo performance in the coming days.


      Cheers,
      Karthik.
      Quick Gun Shogun !

        Like I said in my post earlier, the stock plug will do the trick. Remember a wrongly rated plug will tamper the performance vastly.
        Stick to stock and if you damn sure, upgrade.

            Nice good you went bback to stock plug, the thing is with iridium its needs spot on jetting else keeps fouling and 500rs keep going down the drain ..
