And there was me, thinking you loved and cherished your bike - even giving it a name.  Ha.

All my bikes have names Mike, many not suitable for a public forum and others I can't even remember  I have given it some thought and will order some but not until I can find them at a price as low as I now pay for NGK's.........and that is very low  .
Ps...there was also a Dakota at Coningsby today.

  I have just fitted 4 D7EA's and they were  £5.99 for 4 ,with free  P&P

 but I guess Trig buys them wholesale at 99p a bucket full

 they us the Dakota as a training aircraft for the Lanc,a large tailwheel configuration makes them similar to fly

[Woodside]

All my bikes have names too...
Normally
 "Feckin fireblade"
"Feckin bultaco"
"Feckin ______" (insert anything I own)
There's a Patten

[Nurse Julie]

Yes Jason, it sounds oh so familiar 

[mike the bike]

Been on a Dakota - out of Staverton airfield.   
My brother said it was his first time in an aeroplane.
I said it was my first time I've ever landed in an aeroplane.

Was you running with ngk plug caps as well, because two lots of resistors gives problems, not wanting to teach you how to suck eggs but it's a common mistake and I have made that one myself.

Ermmmm, Yes, that was my doing  I serviced the bike last and the time before I think and I had some DR8ES's laying around that I purchased from DS a couple of years ago. Now, my logic tells me that I would have put in the same as I had taken out. Taking in to account the bike has had this problem since I got her, maybe this is why. Strange though as DS still show the DR8's as suitable for the 400/4. I still think the worn engine has something to do with it but will see how she gets on.

Keep up guys, am pretty sure I mentioned this on page 3 and on other threads. Its all Silvers fault for listing the wrong plugs.   These are the Denso plugs I use, cheapest around.   http://www.gsparkplug.com/1x-denso-standard-spark-plugs-x27es-u-x27esu-067800-4140-0678004140-4114.html?___SID=U

You most certainly did Roy and as usual I took no bloody notice of what any Man says 
Him indoors was under the impression that I was using the non resisted plugs anyway but I wasn't. I have only been out on her once since Trig fitted the other plugs as have been riding other bikes but I'm hopeful it may have cured the problem but, as Trig said before, the engine does need some internal work done as she has oil vapour in the airbox. It can wait until winter though.

Try the Denso plugs Julie, they made a huge difference on my 750. And pretty cheap from the Green Spark Plug Company, you never know.

[Nurse Julie]

I will give them a go Roy.

[Norniron]

Put a set of NGK 8EV in and the bikes idling nice now.
No fluctuating Julie.
Give Trigger a slap on the back for me

[Nurse Julie]

Good Dave, that's you all sorted then.
I will give Trig a slap
