162 APPENDIX

Additional

Considerations

for Racing

This motorcycle

has been manufactured

for use in a

reasonable

and

prudent

manner and as a vehicle only.

However,

some may wish to subiect this

motorcycle to

abnormal

operation,

such as

would

be experienced

under

racing conditions.

KAWASAKI

STRONGLY RECOM-

SAFELY AND

AND ITS

OPERATION.

Racing

done

under supervised

conditions,

participate

in competitive racing or related

use, tl|e following

technical

might aris€ from

such use.

Test

have

shown

the

plug

list€d in tlre

"Electrical

System" chapter

to be the

best

plug

for

general

use.

Since spark

plug

requirements

change

with the igni-

tion

and carburetion

adjustments

and

with

riding condi-

tions,

whether or

not a spark

plug

a correct heat

range

is used

should be determined

by removing

and inspect-

ing

the

plug.

When

plug

of the correct heat

range is being

used,

the electrodes will

stay hot enough to

kedp all the

carbon

burned

off, but mol enough to keep from

damaging the

engine and the

plug

itself. This tem-

perature

is about 400

800"C

(750

1,450"F) and

can

judged

noting

the condition

and color of the

ceramic

insulator

around

the

center electrode.

lf the

clean and of a light brown color,

Sdch

plug

is designed for better

cooling efficiency

that

will

not overheat and thus

often called a

"colder"

plug.

lf a spark

plug

too high a

heat range is used

that is, a

"cold"

plug

that

cools itself too well

the

plug

will stay too cool to

burn

off the carbon, and the carbon will correct

electrodes

and the

ceramic

insulator.

The

carbon

on the electrodes conducts electrici.ty,

and can short

the center electrode to

ground

by either

coating

the ceramic insulator

or bridging across the

gap.

Such

a short will

prevent

an effective spark. Carbon
