    Most of my gears has been brought from overseas, good old nz is just way to dear & behind the times. Id go for the exchange replate kit which is 2 replated cylinders + the vertex pistons etc (twin ring for road of course)

    Had the sapc plugs mixed up.

    Was quite strange, when i turned the key on the actuator turned 180 and the grey wire test did nothing.
    Once i swapped the plugs around nothing happened when i turned the key on and the power valved opened and closed

    Cant wait for the roads to dry to see what difference it makes.

    Yeah, plenty have been done, including my own. A few have been tried over the years by the crew, and now it's all handled by one vendor. Sean also offers bridge and detonation damage repairs, plus water spigot replacement and even cleaning and disassembly for the lazy.

    Would be easy to figure out why from the wiring diagram

    Agreed! Even I ride my bikes in the wet (then clean them, lots)

    Took it for a blast up the hills, bit more power now. Gets the front off the ground without using the clutch
    Although it stutters under power as if the powervalves arent opening smoothly. Anyone have any ideas?

    mm stuttering under power could be a list of things..

    the powervalves prob wouldn't make it stutter.. more like just dull the power.

    carbs.. jetting.. air/fuel mix.. weak spark etc etc could be causes.

    cool that shes running! wheelie without clutch must mean shes making some power hehe

    replace the plugs and go for another ride.
    always start with the plugs with issues like this. they can spark fine outside the cylinder, but be absolute shit when in the running bike

    thanks i will check the plugs and coils.
    It only happens under full throttle around 6-8rpm which is why i thought it might be the power valves.

    How good is the battery that's in it? What you're describing could be weak spark caused when the power valves open and take juice from the ignition.
