Rob,
I'm no mechanic but I did stay in a Holiday Inn express last night ;-)
The most accurate method of determining how your running as you know is to
inspect your spark plugs. If both look the same and appear really dark
carbon fouled I would simply change the needle settings to a leaner position
or two and move them both the same. Change plugs.....run for a couple
hundred miles and re-inspect.
I am assuming here that your Stage one kit only included notched needles.
You are running the OEM jets correct?

Here's a question. I have a 2001 Marauder with a Stage 1 Dynojet kit and
Cobra Slip-ons. I have 12,000 miles and suffer from running overly rich. I
went to a hotter type plug, but to no avail.
I'm looking for suggestions. Should I:
a.. Replace the air filters with stock K&N's? $41 each at Competition
Accessories.
b.. Change the needle setting to a leaner position?
c.. Both?
Experience, opinions, I'll take whatever I get.
Thanks
