Got very excited last Saturday when the call was expected to go and collect my bike....at last only been ....what a month anyway got the call but it was bad news, bike still running like a dog so no bike for me

Got another call on Monday informing me it may be a bent valve??How could this occur then given the bike was running reasonably well the weekend before I took it in the shop. Everytime I stopped at lights etc it stalled but as it was running a little rough since fitting the Db killers and removing them I took it to be Co2 or some such issue. Not the case after MR worked all day Saturday changing bits to eliminate them; they were still no wiser. So engine to be stripped and check for bent valve and I guess any other damage Hopefully DUK will include this if it is found to be the problem otherwise Christmas is looking slim this year.
