[QUOTE="Bobv07662, post: 124027, member: 4641"] Thank you all for your input, it's been very helpful. I do apologize for the good old fashioned race fuel we have available here in the States. (Not Av-gas). The bike does not smoke at all and after last night's ride I checked the plugs and they look fine. I had previously made up an inspection tube to look at the float level on the pre-monoblocs, they are about 1/4 inch below the jet and not leaking either. The bike does respond to adjustments to the pilot circuit and appears to be happier at idle the richer I make it, so I believe lean due to air leaks around the unsealed spigots as suggested by Robert Watson will be my next thing to look at. Today was fine tuning the rear ride height for the Dave Hills center-stand. Fuel I'm presently using...https://vpracingfuels.com/product/motorsport-105l-ms105l/?c=217 [/QUOTE]
