I've been told the engine has been like this for about 8 thousand miles, apparently has tried rolling it back although not tried my self.
It is quite an awful tick, i'll get a video and don't feel particularly uncomfortable about just leaving it.

It's always quite a nasty noise to put up with on tickover

Not clutch rattle. Not noticed it while flicking the clutch in or out but will pay some attention to that on the ride home.

Re your carb rubbers_I replaced mine in July got them from M&P Swansea-£69-99. Also bought carb overhaul kits from them. Transformed the fuelling after carb balance. Tyres; I am running Michelin PR3s Good tyres!

Fantastic, I'll be in touch in regards to those shortly David48 as that sounds like what i need. Sure sounds better than the generic 'all balls' stuff!
The bike is actually very crispy and responsive surprisingly.
I will probably go as far as replacing the inlets, full service and balence (got a set of carbtunes)


I'm going to keep an eye on eBay for a cheap set of good inlets if not i'll get the £70 ones.
