I'm working on the 01 Bonneville America that was in the movie "Daredevil". It has been sitting for 3 or 4 years, has 300 miles on it and the owner needs help getting it running. I cleaned the carbs, put in new plugs, changed oil and filter, changed the battery, but I can't keep the left cylinder from fouling the plug. It doesn't foul at idle, just when the throttle is opened and after its been run 10 to 20 miles. Any ideas? Thanks, Jim
Technically the first model year was 2002. Chances are if the production date is 2001 you have a pre-fire unit with an ugly lower triple tree.  Glad you figured out the fouling problem. Another member had a missing main jet 'collar' that caused pretty much the same symptoms. Also if any of the air mixture screws 'kit' are missing, like-wise.
