I actually use a one step colder plug for summer...BR8HS...Its perfect for the desert heat conditions on my Phantom 85.
Let me know if it does work and if that might have been the problem all along, this will help others down the road...lol.and then if it works,

We ALL know that anything red on a bike makes it go faster...lol...lol.The red makes it go faster.
The performance CDI increases performance because of the red wire. It's the red aftermarket part phenomenon.We ALL know that anything red on a bike makes it go faster...lol...lol.
Look at all the red on mine...lol...Even my gas line is red...lol.

I made my own rear adapter from 7075 T-6 Aluminum I got from a buddy that is some sort of honcho over at White Sands Missle Proving Grounds that also work on the Drone program for the USAF...For my front adapter, I just used an "Adel" clamp from an F-16...They both work fantastic...lol.@DAMIEN1307 how did you get rear disc brakes on a bike that doesn't have the mount? What adapter did you use for it? (I'm assuming the BBR one)
Wow, the mount came out really nice. I'm a bit in awe and confused regarding your front mount for the disc brake. It looks to me that you mounted the adel clamp through the top of the caliper, but I see at the bottom no hardware? I'm unsure if the screw is in the other side? Did you use the adel clamp on the top mounting point and then mount the bottom of it into the fork where a fender would normally be?I made my own rear adapter from 7075 T-6 Aluminum I got from a buddy that is some sort of honcho over at White Sands Missle Proving Grounds that also work on the Drone program for the USAF...For my front adapter, I just used an "Adel" clamp from an F-16...They both work fantastic...lol.
I also made my front motor mount from some 7075 T-6 aluminum as well...Nice and sturdy, rock solid, never moves on me...lol.
I'm happy the resistor plug Idea was the problem solver for your headlight blinking problem...lol.

If ya look closely at the pic below, you will see that the normal black adapter is secured to the "Adel" clamp where the nut and bold hold the clamp together...The bottom is actually held by the fork on that adapter that is made to slide into and rest on the axle itself and of course, it is the axle nut holding all that together...It hasn't budged in about three years now...lol.I'm a bit in awe and confused regarding your front mount for the disc brake.

I think that the resistor plug is all it should need...I am running a wireless speedometer computer on mine and when I first put it on, it was telling me I was doing 99 MPH...lol...I quickly reasoned it out as RF interference coming from my non-resistor spark plug and simply replaced it with a resistor spark plug...lol...End of problem...lol.Also, the headlight works great, however I'm going to eliminate the heat shrink spark plug wire to see will it be the resistor plug that is the solution, or the heat shrink wrap. I eliminated my tachometer in the process of the diagnosis but I would like to have it back. It's pretty fascinating, the tach can't even get a reading over the heat shrink, I peeled back 1" of the heat shrink to coil up the tach wire and the rest of the wire that is heat shrunk is interfering with the tach wire. I figured as long as the coiled section of the tach wire wasn't over the heat shrink it would be fine, it appears I would need to peel it back entirely.
