Had another successful road outing yesterday evening when I went for a 10 mile jolly to scrub the new rear tyre in, this time I managed to find a bit more space for opening the bike up and had the poor little thing at full throttle for about 2 miles. On the lower gearing it was reving hard and it does make me wonder how long the engine will last.
Again there was no signs of the engine cutting out although at low revs and just off a closed throttle it did feel very fluffy as if it was a tad rich.
I can safely say the suspension is not set for the road as pot-holes and derain covers are best avoided.
As the bike stands the budget is up to £1835 to which I will probably end up adding a Rev counter, not worried about it at Woodlands as I doubt if I'll have time to look at it.
Pic is of the bike after I arrived back home after testing yesterday
