had another play today, the bikes now running properly.

it was my incompetence that caused the problem.

the plugs come preset by NGK. i misread the  feeler gauge and set the gap to 0.2mm. 

set the gap to 0.6mm and bikes running properly.

i am now a happy bunny.

thanks for all the help folks

just need some good weather now so i can go out and play.

Still doesn't explain the nearly 2mm gap on the old plugs! lol

it rained for most of the day here.

ive replaced the fork oil and lowered the yokes 5mm on the forks since i last rode the bike.

one of the forks had a 20mm larger air gap than the other and the springs are at their service limit.

hopefully ill notice a difference in the handling when i do get back out.
