Hi,
Thanks for all the speedy replies guys.
Some of the links were really stiff so I ended up going at them with a can of gt85, think I'm going to drop a load of engine oil on the inside of the chain and every day this week on lunch at work (imagine if anythings got a chance of working its way into the chain its a lighter oil), bound to make a mess but I don't really want yo take the chain off. If I get a few more pay packets under my belt before I splash out on a new chain and sprockets.
Not sure if its an O or X hard to see with all the dirt (which I'm sure is part of the issue), riding all of a very wet winter certainly wont of helped I'm sure.
I rebuilt my carbs because one if the seals on the float bowl was leaking and a set of seals were £18 and a whole kit was £40, turned out to be a good move most of the seals were dry/hard and cracked. Its early days but its starting much better, it wasn't starting like it used to before.
