QUESTION: plugs are black running way too rich.also not running baffles.thanks.

Answer
If your bike has been running fine before this happened then I would start by doing a OHMs test on the coil and plug wires. If you have a weak coil you will foul plugs.
If that is not the problem then you probably need to rejett. If you go to the S&S web site you will find the tech pages and in there you will find how to jet your carb.
Good luck and happy riding
