Hi Nick,
In a 30 limit, it's not happy in 3rd; if there become even a slight upwards incline and I open the throttle as per normal it it does what I can only describe a a violent "kerchung kerchung" snatching, if I change down to second to get over it it only really does anything like smoothing out if it's accelerating. Which in a 30 limit is obviously no good.

I went out on it yesterday with some friends, some of it very rural Shropsire roads and villages, it was a swine. Once out on the open road, accerating with a decent throttle opening it was great. Trying to hold it a steady speeds, 30, 40, maybe 50 it just jerk jerk jerks. I'd have thought beyond character by a long way.

I'll check the chain tension, I have done it and not done many miles since but I'll check it again.

Thanks for the replies all
