Thank you all for your kind birthday wishes, much appreciated. I’ve been out and about on NNR recently and despite my new carbs ive a power hesitation at 6000 rpm. I discovered that there was a small leak from the header pipes which upon further investigation I found that there were no copper crush seals at the header pipe / head joint. I’ve fitted them and she’s as smooth as a cashmere codpiece until it hits 6000 then it hesitates, so I think the carbs need a fettle so she’s going into the shop to be sorted this week. Then I’ll probably lay her up over winter and look forward to warmer weather in the spring. Tbh up to 50mph she’s really smooth and I’ve not had a need to exceed that where I tend to ride so it’s a minor irritation but one that needs sorting. The hesitation aside she looks and sounds really nice! .
