ihave a1997 kawa 750 zxi 2 stroke i do all of my own work to a degree. i change plugs every 15 to20 hrs of riding as i could tell by occasional stall or lost power, but after only 6 or 7 hrs i had no power untill troubleshooting the problem it was the plugs both of them ,is this a sign of engine wear? plugs doesnt look to corroded dark brown or black. i ride FAST and HARD AND I,M A HABITUAL WAVE JUMPER,could i be putting strain on the engine?
