Seems like there's too much fuel in the system. I have to start with petrol off, run it until it starts to die then turn petrol on. If I drop below 3500 rpm it wants to splutter and stop. If I try to pull away from lights etc it feels like it's bogged down. Takes too long to pick up the revs. Had a close shave trying to turn right across oncoming traffic last night. It died and I had to jump off and push it out of the way. I need to get another 300 miles on it,swap heads and give it its first service before I can travel for more than 20 miles at a time.

you'd think they'd have got it running roughly (SIC) right before they let it go out ... a bit rich on the main jet is to be expected, but lower revs aint the main jet

Troops -- thanks for the shits & giggles this weekend, fantastic day yesterday in great company, especially the ELSC gang hut in the boozer in Aberfoyle city center. I lost the slow group so just doddled home solo, jumped onto the M9 at Falkirk & then through the town -- got stung on the dish my a wasp going through Musselburgh but it was all worth it.
Great turnout yesterday -- hope all got home safe & well
