I am thinking of getting some nice shiny bar ends but I am worried that lighter ones may cause unacceptable vibes.

Any thoughts or experiences out there before I throw me hard earned away?

Edit: I realise I can take mine off and give it a go without, which I will do, but I still am interested in peeps' onions.

Hi all,


Been out this afternoon & on the way back I opened the bike up on the bypass, came to the roundabout and the bike felt rough & sounded like a Subaru (honestly). Limped home the last couple of miles with the bike being rough at low revs - but still idling at the lights etc. I am automatically assuming that one of the jets has picked up something & is now blocked.


Back home the bike will idle ok - albeit roughly, but when I ride it down the lane it lurches forward at times, so the required u turn become I bit dicey.


I have balanced the carbs & they are equal but cylinder 1 is a little eratic.


Can any one confirm that the problem sounds like a blocked jet as I never taken a carburettor apart, or could it be something else.


Is checking & cleaning :'( :'( [size=78%] the jets difficult?[/size]


Cheers all.

If I posted the .. just the top line of the registration numbers of my three (mint) Gen 1s and requested that the current owners contacted me I might discover where they are now? 

It's a good bet that at least one of you guys (if not three) in here will have one of them  :b

No special reason .. just wondering where they are now .. as you do  :\ .
