overheating?

Hi, spark plugs, the lower the number the hotter they are, but i can't see how you know to change the grade of your plug when you're not able to do a plug chop(high speed run and cut the engine).Have you checked the ignition timing?

cheers ray b,not yet, i can`t take it on a long run. been told by bike shops the same thing, but it cuts out. the noise i get is the sound of tin catching, then a loud ticking then cuts out, its starts again runs for 2 mins ,cuts out ,then won`t start until its cooled down.
change the plug to a cooler 1 (bpr6) going to try a (bpr5 or bpr4)any ideas.
thanks.
