I'd run closer to that 1200 IMO. How many miles on the /7 engine? Maybe pulling in the clutch is putting pressure on the end of the crankshaft, causing drag some. Worm out main bearings?

Charge light flickering at idle suggests...to me...that the idle is too low. You might be sacrificing bottom end lubrication at low idle RPMs.

You might have a break in the copper foil that is part of the circuit. Might want to consider opting for the Kat Dash replacement:

Twin shock frame vs a mono shock frame? First thought is I doubt it.

I don't find those parameters having been discussed before on the forum. I googled a few and came up with these websites...maybe some useful info? https://motogadget.helpscoutdocs.com/article/257-motoscope-rpm-is-displayed-incorrectly-not-at-all-or-fluctuates-strongly https://manuals.motogadget.com/...

Welcome! I googled that city name and find one in New York and the United Kingdom, even Canada!!

Are there different burn rates of the flame front with E5 vs E10? Or volatility of the fuel? Could something like that contribute to better running?

According to RealOEM, those springs were only listed for the later models, say 1980-on. Bings manual suggests that same thing, for later version carbs.

Kurt

Blocked air filter? Torn diaphragms in the carbs?
