Ahhh way down there! Thanks, got it, but to preserve the server and maybe the costs I think I'll continue to use the url. Cheers.

I am pleased to announce PROBLEM SOLVED. New 145 main jets arrived yesterday, motobins are very fast, I fitted them today as soon as I got home from work, I was slightly frustrated that the right hand carb picked this to start leaking, broken gasket, the float bowl hand been on and off one too many times, fortunately I had two spares. A quick blast around the block rush hour or not and its working like its supposed to.
So a big thank you to all who contributed, it has taken well over a year to solve this, I was starting to feel truly lost and alone and I still have trouble believing it was one of the main jets. You all really helped me focus on the problem, thanks again

Glad it's fixed.
NOW is the time to hook up the vacuum gauges and/or manometers to sync the carbs (if you don't trust your ears).
