All sorted out now, it will be posted tomorrow, Tuesday.

I was in a hotel in winchester all weekend; they block the internet to make you buy some of theirs, I think, so I could only log on from the pub....Apologies for delays in responding.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

I've been meaning to ask this for ages. This TPS thingy. Is it just a later model thing or does my '98 model have it as well?

Thanks for that.

Since my bike idles solidly and never farts or stalls, picks up and runs nicely on part throttle I'm going to leave well alone!
