Last time I saw mine it had been supermoto'd and was a right rust-bucket.

Here she is still loved and cared for:

Identical to mine :thumb

Mine is a bit snatchy at very low revs, I've set everything up..mixture,valve clearances etc but am wondering if it's the Dynojet affecting low speed running, so may change back to standard jets. When it's on the throttle it's fine.
Any ideas?

Mine was totally stock except lower gearing (rear sprocket) for trail-riding and always seemed dead-smooth compared to my KLX 650..

Tim/Chris,

what gearing did yez change to, and how badly did it effect road speed? Not terribly much I'd imagine, but what do I know, I've never done it before :nenau
 
My memory ain't all it could be but I think I went up 2 teeth on the rear sprocket and could keep the stock chain length.....

...and speed was barely affected, as above 70 it was hard to hang on...

That old 20 litre tank will keep you going for a very long way - this was my Morocco set-up, and I almost never needed the jerry.
