somehow the seal that holds the spark connector for the spark plug blew offand lost grip so the spark plug was bouncing it and out causing the v twin type sound. i put a new plug in there and it sounds normal. just hope it stays in now at high speeds

I had some of those I used headlight fluid, instead of bearing grease, to keep them lubed.
