[size=1em]Did you warm the engine before you did the test? Yes[/size]
[size=1em]Did you fully open the throttle? Yes[/size]
[size=1em]Are you sure the air filter is in good condition? [/size]Yes
Were you cranking the engine with a strong battery? Yes
Did you repeat the test with some oil in the cylinders? Yes but my oil can is rubbish so not sure how much oil when in, similar results
And what were the results after you added the oil? Not sure due to the above
Just so we're all clear what exactly are your current symptoms? At the moment when the bike warms up I get a delay in acceleration/juddering when gently accelerating. This happens around 4000 to 5000 rpm, maybe as low as 3500rpm, this happens in different gears, ie when you down shift etc Accelerating hard is fine, it goes through 3500 to 5000rpm fine. In idle the rev counter is surging a bit and not staying in one place.
New issue when warm and you stop the rev's get stuck and I need to fiddle with the adjuster to bring them back down. This didn't happen until I readjusted the pilots back to factory setting to 2 turns out. Carbs have been balanced and come in around 150mm but I think the book says it should be 250mm.
The bike seems fine to ride, I just have to be mindful of the rev's issue, I know its old but should things be as out as that?
Will check out all the other suggestions to try and eliminate the electrics etc
Cheers
