Should have removed a spark plug,
that should have halved the noise

Better to leave the plug in ;-) Just lift the plug cap corresponding to the exhaust pipe they use to do the testing. That trick got a fair few RGs passed the sound check on a quiet day at Oulton Park a few years ago. Mind you, I'm not sure how well the GT750 would have run on just 1 cylinder!

You need to ask? Of course, they are the real thing and hence all of the problems. Now about to get it off the trailer and go up to the Bank in Bromley, so will set off all the car alarms in the multi storey car park to make me feel better!

I don't think it would pass on tickover. You started it up and Skids and I looked at each other and both said, 'well that's got no chance'
