I brought one a couple of weeks ago and found them to be a brilliant tool saves so much time trying to second guess carb issues

yeah me too just goes to audio, the one thing i found using it was that there is quite a wide band for the blue colour recommended so i just got mine to a slightly rich colour and backed it off until it was blue, i am hoping it will help with starting but time will tell

My bad. The summary is audio only. Should have flagged it or something,.

I did exactly the same thing and it starts nicely, with choke from cold but that can be switched off before I get to the end of the street. However, tick over when riding is a little lumpy and it is slightly slow on the uptake,...

As I had to take the thing apart to check the fuel level sender I pulled the plugs to have a look-see.

I have done some 250 miles in total and before taking these out I had just done a 20 mile journey at averagely 40mph with the last mile at around 20 mph, then switched off.

Any thoughts as to what the plugs look like and where I need to adjust the mixture?
