      @thechompster does it have the resistor in it the 'r' in the spark plug type as this can cause issues with the operation of the valve

              @thechompster my mistake, I meant without the 'r' lol if it hasn't got the resistor in it the valve finds a mind of its own. You can hear the exhaust note change as you ride

                  @thechompster I believe it’s built into the core of the plug

                      I guess it's ok as it ran great with the power valve working spot on for a few weeks. Just got a cdi off eBay and a servo so will try the cdi first and see if it fixes it.

                        Problem solved. It was the cdi unit. Changed that and it runs like a dream. Thought I'd let everyone know as sometimes people get it fixed and you never hear the outcome πŸ™‚

                          @thechompster Glad you got it working bud, as I said previously, I guess these bikes are just getting to that age now unfortunately.

                              @thechompster Zeeltronic make ignitions for these bikes so there is an aftermarket solution.
