not sure how long its been doing it i think quite some time now but it wasnt noticeable as much untill i put my new exhaust on and i can hear it.
idle at 1200rpm but bounce up and down about 300rpm or so, not eratic but every few seconds itll go up then settle.. when riding along at a constant throttle i can just about feel it but can hear it in the exhaust tone.
ideas?
Needs the carbs balanced
Easiest way to go fast........don't buy a blue bike
i thought as much, i balanced them before, but new exhaust and a carb clean i had to rebalance but i think i did #4 out and just gave up with "close enough"

Could be the onset of involuntary Ticks :lol
Those are my principles...if you don't like them I have others.

Plug caps/HT leads, air filter, then carb balance would be my first actions.
Had "hunting" problems years ago on a bike and it was iffy HT leads, even worse in wet/damp weather.
Also check TPS, if that's iffy it will give similar symptoms too.

ill change the caps because it can only make it better even if i dont notice it.
tps was fine when i last checked about 1000 miles ago.
No harm in taking a few seconds to check the TPS again, a lot can happen in 1000 miles!
Cut 5mm off end of HT leads to start afresh, these are good replacements:

Or if you want......brace yourself......buy 4 of these.

#1 and #2 can't be cut they appear to have been cut before they only just fit as it is.
i have 1 new plug cap as i bought it to replace #1 which kept breaking when wet
