They all run 87 but they use different sleds. Could incorrect use of the Fuel Designation Connector cause this type of problem?
I assume you are talking about the ethonol plug?
If so, not unless you were running ethonol fuel with the connector in the other position.
Not sure on newer models, but I beleive the laydown 700 was a 3% increase in fuel across the board with the ethonol plug disconected.
If the heads have not been touched, the squish should be fine.
It is the measurement from the top of the piston to the top of the combustion chamber at the outer diameter of the head at TDC.
You can check with a large piece of soldering wire down the spark plug hole, rotate the engine to crush the wire then measure it.
If you don't find anything, then like others have said, wait till it snows, go up planning on road riding and stopping often to check plugs, water temp, etc.
So you build some confidence before you really start loading the engine.
