Other option is to take bike to that nice Mr Steptoe, not too far from you. My 1100 was running rich but after he worked his magic it was perfect.

Mine seems to run rich, also - wonder what he did to cure it, Sid?
I've checked the TPS, and cleaned the injectors, but still a dribble of soot on end of silencer - and plugs soot up in no time. Mine's a German import - so CAT and no CO pot.

turn it in, or out a full turn, just remember original position...
go for a ride, do a plug chop then ........
if its lean , or rich turn it the opposite way, till ye get a good colour on yer plug.

I cured that by swapping the German exhaust on my bike over for a UK spec one i got from ebay nice and cheap (unused for £25). I then (as per steptoes advice) simply disconnected the Lamda sensor cable at the loom. and threw the whole caboodle in the bin. so now have a bike with no CO pot. No lamda/cat. In theory this means the bike is running in 'Limp mode' - the reality is it runs brilliantly. a smidge of soot on the exhaust builds up over 3 tank fills. plugs are fine. 200 to the tank.... pulls like a train.
