    Exercise your wrist on the bike sounds like a good call!

    Running it in at the mo and having a few... not problems exactly just things I'm not sure about, thought id have an ask see if anyone has any ideas,
    Firstly there's black oil/petrol or somthings building up in the exhaust, my guess is unburt oil building up in the pipe and not getting burnt off because the exhaust isn't hot getting hot enough, IE just a side effect of running a 2smoke so slowly? Any other theorys?

    Secondly it doesn't seem to like maintaining any rpm it accelerates through the revs cleanly, stuttering a bit between 5-6k rpm but that is fine if you give it a bit more throttle but if I hold it at any rpm, or open the throttle quite a small ammount, it splutters and coughs, don't know if its just what 2 smokes do at low rpm as I never really ran it low in the rev range before now! Could it just be the throttle cable needs adjusting?

    And lastly if I shut off the throttle, as the bike slows down there a sort of fluttering noise coming from somwhere, I can't figure out where and its quite quiet, not sure if its a new noise or somthing I've just started noticing, haven't got a clue about this one so... Any ideas?
    Thanks

    All sounds fine to me. Nothing you describe sounds bad. the oiling is more than likley due to the low revs, and the overrun is normal. It is amazing what you here when you are listening....
