Sounds like the jetting is off. The temperature may have varried enough to cause that or different gas. Hard telling, just mess with the jetting a bit and im sure you will be good to go.

Try the simple things first. Is the choke on? Plug could be partially fouled, try a new one in. Might even have some dirt in one of the jets.

What irritates me is!
Those 6-packs work pretty good.

Be sure to inspect your K&N for tears and make sure it's on tight, check your intake boots for cracks and for a loose head pipe.

Put fresh fuel in. I would change the plug anyway then move to jetting if the others don't solve the problem.

Unless the plug was light grey/white?
