Ok just did 30 miles through the hills to get her warmed up & me cooled down brrrrrrrr.....was an experience trying to stay upright in the wind.
Firstly the leads......the bike is running much much smoother & feels more powerful.
The noise......didnt do it when i left the house, or at the junction to my street......i turned round at the top of the hills in a gravel lay-by.....& i got 1 ping.......so that could lend to the stones on fender theory.
When i got back to town i visited the local multi story car park as it is sheltered....smoothe, non stoney surface & noise travels well......did a few move offs & not a peep.....got fuel, thrashed her through the gears on the airfield & came home & not a single noise....... Tick over is now lovely.
So we defo resolved an underlying issue thanks & i think now that i know the plugs are all fine when it heats up & i go out for a decent run (hot, tyre, sticky, stones) then i'll analyse it a bit further.
