It should quite happily, (well..maybe not quite happily) idle at 300rpm if you wished it to do so :biggrin I'd go along with lloydie then. TPS and Balance, but for now, just up your idle speed a tad. Twist that round Black knob on the front carb :lol:

8th is probably the soonest I'm available :lol: I'll find some around

I'll have a go at finding it in the morning then Carl, if not I'll just have to make sure Leamington knows my presence with my throttle wide open constantly :evil: :twisted:

Right hand side of the bike, look through the V in the frame above and to the left of the rad. You will see a knurled black knob on the rear of the front carb. Turn either clockwise or anti clockwise to adjust the idle speed higher or lower. Best to set it once the bike is at running temp. You wont burn your hands so don't worry, and you can turn it with your fingers. :thumbup:

Battery is practically new. Only replaced it as the old one was shagged a couple months ago and really struggled starting. I'm still starting first time every time now :lol:

Okay, and I think so. However I get the feeling the second you touch my carbs something, or rather two things, will go missing :lol:

Too many thingies Jamie, it just labels you as a creep :wink: <3
