Was having a great ride on the SEI today when disaster struck, firstly the power hesitated momentarily then it faded slowly for a quarter of of a mile before coming to a halt. It does not seem to have much compression so i will need to give the cylinders a compression check but i might check the cam chain first.I need to get this sorted for Italy this year only hope its something simple.

Panic over checked the bike today the rotor for the electronic ignition had slipped on the crankshaft. As it slipped the timing went out and the bike started to run worse and worse, glad its an easy fix. The symptoms i had i thought it was a siezure !. Italy here we come with old bikes you learn something every day.

good to hear it was something simple (and free....) to fix.

Good luck for Italy!
