    i dunno m8, having a few technical mishaps of my own atm since i installed a chopped back blanking plate, it sounds like 1 big misfire below 8k, but then it gets to 8k and screams all the way out.

    Done a plug chop to make sure its running right?

    mines exactly da same like 1 big misfire below 8k and its exactly the same bike as ure Rossi Rep perhaps its a Rossi Rep thing lol
    me plug looks a bit black so i think its to rich and tampering with the air scew doesnt seem ta do anythin it gotta be the main jets to big cos the needle clip is on the top notch
    What main jet u got cheers

    dunno, never touched the carb setting on it lol, it runs well enough for me, so as the old saying goes, if it aint broke then dont fix it =p

    Just try a smaler main jet, but make sure you plug chop it as soon as you have changed it, the last thing you want is to seize it!
