    Great stuff. Lovely bike. I'd give it 100-200 miles to run in. Better safe than sorry.

    Thanks, I'm up to about 120 miles but coming back from a 20 mile run last night it ran onto reserve as it was pulling into the powerband. Not sure whether it ran weak for a second but it seems to have just lost it's edge. I checked the plugs when I got home and they were both a nice brown colour with no tell tale ali looking particles, I thought I may have just burnt a piston crown. Still starts first kick, ticks over evenly and pulls well low down and I may be looking for something that's not there but doesn't feel quite right.

    Going to fill it with Super unleaded and pop across to Bugad Bikes this evening to see if it feels okay, if not then will whip the top end off this weekend.
