Default rought idle

i did some reading here and online and I am out of ideas. Please help

OK so my bike idels rough all the time, when I hold the throtle the idles hesitates about 200 rpms, I know its' nothing crazy but it is so uncomfortable and it seems I lost some power.
I checked the throtle body and conections its good. the bike has a slip on but I had it ever since and just last week this happened.
I guess spark plugs, but I look into it and it seems hard to change them.

damnit I am so **** about perfection.

PLease Help, any ideas.

Thank You

so I guess I am talking to myself here, anyways

I changed the spark plugs and its still same, spark 3 and 4 were wet and oily.

the other thing is one of the hoses specificly the one from the front of the air box has some gas in it. looked at the tail pipe and it had some carb build up, and when I start it spits about liquid thats probably mis of gas and oil.

anyway i have to get fpr and see if changing it will help.


what do you think????????????????????????????????????????????? ??????????????????????????

Hmmm, well you ruled out my #1 idea of it being the plugs...how did the air filter look when you had it out?

hmmm
gas I might have went somewhere else, the air filter was clean.
I ordered fuel presure stabilizer so that would be the last think before I go to the mechanic.
will get the new gas,

if the spark plugs 3 and 4 were littel gunky since the other two were good would it mean something.

thank you

Wet plugs would probably be caused by a rich mixture. If you have slipon and no Power commander, that could be the problem but you said this is something new so I doubt that's the cause. Put some fuel stabil in your tank and run it almost dry before you fill up again.
