Mines was bogging down and hesitating at lower revs, tried all the usual stuff such as air filter, pilot jets and mains.

Bloke at the moto piston rally in Spain with a high mileage F1 told me the needles and needle jets would need changing, he was correct it ran beautifully after that.   

DomP:
Getting new genuine needles and emulsion tubes, I'm not sure that's likely in the UK.

Skoti:
I got a genuine set sent from Australia, then later a spare set from a Honda dealer in Sweden.
(But since then the've become available in the UK again)

I just looked up the part number on CMSNL and then google searched worldwide.


But of course 550F1 stuff maybe much more scarce.


Anyhow good luck.

Im not sure Skoti but I will certainly look into it, in the meantime I do wonder if this it too free flowing

Bryanj:
More air should make it weak not rich
