Hey guys
Thanks for watching the videos and replying, I will try to answer all the little questions you've had about the bike and how it was started.
1. The bike was started with no choke, in nearly 3 years of owning it I have never had to use the choke, she has started up on the button every time for me, I use the bike all year round and even in the winter she never seems to struggle.
2.The carbs were replaced over a year ago when the old set of carbs started leaking fuel, the new set were balanced after being put on. My last service was in March and she had her carbs balanced then as well however yes when you start her at the moment the RPM needle does go up a tiny bit every so often so I do think she is possible in need of another one soon.
3. The idle is set on 1,200-1,300RPM (Just below 1 and a half thousand RPM basically). Before she was set to 1,700RPM however I was told by a mechanic this was too high and so he lowered to below 1 and half thousand RPM).
4.The exhaust is a Delkevic 200mm Round Carbon Fibre exhaust - There is no baffle in the exhaust
I will give that little pulling in the clutch and listening out for a noise change test a go, hopefully it is not as bad as the most recent comment said, I think I would cry if I needed all that work doing to her, thanks again for making me aware, hope the information I have provided is helpful in anyway possible for any noise you all might of thought was not normal, however I am slightly happy that so far no one has said it DEFINITELY sounds like the cam chain.
Look forward to reading your next comments.
Thanks again to all of you so far.
