spooge

[SRigas]

I've tried multiple jetting changes on my bike and it continues to be a spooge creator. Is spooge caused by the main jet, needle or pilot primarily? :(

I've found that more than not, the pilot affects the amount of spooge you will experience, but a lot depends on how hard you ride too.
Have you repacked your silencer lately?

The silencer is about two months old and hasn't been repacked. I guess I'll have to lower the pilot jet further, but it will be outside what has been recommended of 45 to 42. Your thoughts?

Have you raised the needle clip one notch. What size main?

There is an article that addresses that issue called That oily drool blues @mxamericaonline.com
good luck

I bought an FMF pipe and silencer after my first ride and noticed a lot of spooge as well. After jetting: stock main, 42 pilot, needle at second clip, it got better but was still there. Then I realized that I put the rubber spacer ring in backwards. I added a bit of high temp silicon when put back correctly no more spooge. Moral of the story.....check your ring.
