Check your exhaust plumbing carefully. Many small v-twins like the little Viragos have a "fake" muffler atop the real muffler. If you look underneath you might find you have the same fake arrangement.
Hi, I’m aware of the old viragos having fake mufflers but I’m pretty confident the Venox has both real ones, I checked the parts diagram and remember seeing the top muffler going to the front combustion chamber and the bottom muffler to the rear chamber.
I attached the part diagram photo I mentioned, the longer tube extending far out to the left is for the top muffler I’m concerned about, the shorter one is the bottom muffler. The more I think about it, I believe the difference in exhaust temps is possibly due to the bottom muffler having a shorter length of piping to the rear combustion chamber therefore less travel for heat to exit the muffler versus the top muffler having twice as long of piping to the front chamber resulting in more distance between the exhaust and the chamber. I guess simply put, the shorter the pipe to the combustion chamber, the warmer the exhaust since it’s closer. The longer the pipe, the further away from the chamber thus less by the time it exits the muffler.
Id still like to know where I need to plug my carb sync tool as well and where the adjustment is haha if anyone knows that’d be great.
