Thanks for your help on this issue mate. I'm grasping all this final drive scenario now. I have ridden it to work the last two days & when it wasn't blowing a bloody hurricane, i.e yesterday, it middle laned it for 11 motorway miles. I am made up.

You say you have fitted a reed block have you ported out the inlet and changed the inlet timing radically to suit? If not try it without the reed.

I thought that but the above suggests the reed might have just been fitted.

Hey Timbo how did you go on with the jetting problem?

All that was done at Puzzle scooters. It runs great, except my exhaust fell to bits yesterday, so if anyone has a useable ancillotti 42mm pipe they want to earn a few shekels from?
