2nd test ride and all is not as I hoped.
1st gear did not take it up to limit but is OK
2nd gear 10k rmp OK
3rd gear stutter around 10k rpm
4th gear doing 100mph and due to lack of road could not get it to 10k rpm as I was screaming ho shit ho shit ho shit then dropping two gears and whipping it round a roundabout.
Bike runs smoother lower down the rev range but is at its happiest when been ridden hard. Yet when opening the throttle hard from low revs in 3rd gear bike holds back for a second. So I am :think thinking carb balance.
A new noise from the rear wheel is a squeak :groan . Unsure if its the calliper or bearings so I will have a look at that later but only noticed it when going forward.
Daz :wall :wall :wall :wall :wall
