A picture of my brain is shown below for your reference and amusement.

Now I have the timing measured with some accuracy and the temptation to chisel off the standard marks has gone, the bike is back to her wonderful self complete with time-warp effect from the lights. Now you see me, now you don't. No pinking or signs of hard running on 97 RON and the recommended Silent Hektik touring settings.

 :)

[sorry for lots of posts, if I upset anyone, please ask a mod to move this stuff to another thread!]

I have met Mark in the past and during recent floods in Brisbane his workshop was completely flooded out.  Some friends of mine assisted in helping him clean up and a lot of stock was damaged.

They've actually been available for a little while in the US, Tom Cutter was the first distributor.  I'm glad there's more than one now.
