Techron (heavy duty ) or Seafoam like TBT suggested in each plug hole let soak
and drain oil ......use a good filter (Napa or Purolater ) with Rotella 15w 40 (it has
heavy duty detergent package in it for a refill..... should help

Out of interest , how often are you changing oil ?

Can you walk me through the SEAFOAM process. How much SEAFOAM do I pour in each plug hole?, After letting it sit aver night, do I just start the motor or do I have to drain the SEAFOAM?

I currently use Mobile-1 Synthetic 10W-40, with K&N filter. I change the oil every 6000 or 7000.

Thanks, Matt

Mobil 1, 6-7k? No wonder. Do you hate your bike? Try better motorcycle oil and change it closer to 3k. That may solve your problem.
