    Hi. Just removed the restrictor in the exhaust manifold 😁 it is like another bike. Don't think I'll need a 250 at this rate! Absolutely awesome. However, now I have a new challenge. Fuelling! Felt like I was running out of fuel at the top of 5th and 6th gear. Not much in the fuel tank but enough if think. Need to double check. Now thinking I may need a larger main jet in the carb? Will search around in the forum. Sure to be something here.

    @Big-Col 210/240 main jet is standard on these engines for a DEP exhaust system

      Thanks Calum. I took it out again this afternoon with more fuel in the tank. It happened again but then I remembered reading that I shouldn't be afraid to rev it hard at the top end. When keeping the revs high (8k+) it seems to run fine. Such good fun now, I can really appreciate what all the fuss is about these bikes. And that's coming from a guy who has a 959 Ducati! (Without wishing to sound like a t*oser)

                I was confused at this, A1 is not your big boy license, it's your baby 125 license. You mean your A license.

                    @Big-Col tbh I'm looking forward to using the 200 more this year as the 1200 is good but the little wr is scruffy so it don't matter if it gets dropped off road. Got to laugh the Multistrada has an enduro setting - like that's going off road lol!

                      @Nottsbiker I said the same thing about the Maverick, but low and behold it happens.
