Thnaks everyone, and yes hello all.
ok , I took the coils off and checked with a multi meter, all within range, back on and it sounded a little better.
Took a trip on the bike to my local Yamaha dealer, Hayballs of Salisbury, chap there has a listen and said its not ignition, more like carb balancing, as Ady said, plus throttle sensor may need adjusting or replacement.
Now, when I broke down the carbs and put it all in an ultrasonic bath for 12 hrs I did not take off the sensor. waterproof I wonder..oops
as it happened I went out for a 120 mile ride and at about 30 miles out it seemed to get better, well a little.
So, new plugs, carbs cleaned out, (Hayballs quoted £220 for two new coils) so not that yet.
will next have a play with the sensor and get the carbs balanced.
keep you informed, was a nice ride though from Shaftesbury Dorset to Barton on sea/New Milton, sun out and hot,,,bliss
