where too start

Last winter i moved back from alabama and bought my first sled. I have a 1996 xlt 600 triple. my question is after riding very little last winter i went to put it up for the summer. i went to fog the plug holes and noticed that one plug was almost new looking. Do i start with wireing? i check compression when i bought it. Was 120 on all. any help would be nice thank you.

Welcome to the forum!

If the cylinder has compression and the plug has spark, an overly clean plug could indicate a lean condition. You could have a clogged jet in that cylinder's carb...
