I had identical symptoms with similar evidence (oiled up plug on one cylinder). The spark plugs were fairly new so were last on my list. The culprit was a prematurely failed plug.

Coloured aluminium is normally anodised. See if you can have the M/C anodised.

Another oil related myth. Slick 50 was marketed as a friction reducer which would last the life of the engine. It contained PTFE (Teflon)

Have a look at this:

I had a similar problem last year. It turned out to be a duff spark plug causing intermittent misfiring on one cylinder. The Bosch plugs had only covered around 8k miles so wasn't my first port of cal ...

Update on my issue (now solved) maybe this will help the OP.....

The problem was best described as an intermittent partial loss of power once the bike had warmed up - though never bad enough to cau ...

Yes - hold mirror in place and smack it smartly. Keep tongue from between teeth.

look at my post on the subject back in March April

I reckon the muck and oils was casused by loose bolts rather than worn seals - however I replaced the seals (twice!!!) as I had planned ahead and ...

LTIC = Police specification I think

wouldn't that be LTP? (like the RTP)

OK - I think LTIC is UK Police spec. Seen lots for sale on eBay

Might need a tap or two. I think one or more of the footpeg hanger mounting points engages on a projection at the end of the support bracket. The support bracket is steel and the footpeg hanger is all ...

Can you hear the slight click when the switch trips when the pedal is depressed? Similar/identical sound to the switch on the front brake lever.

Why would a poor fuel sender unit connection influence power delivery. I am certainly not doubting that it does - just eager to understand why.

Presumably this connector is the one attached to the ...

During the past couple of weeks I have noticed a similar problem on my bike. A sudden loss of power which lasts a few seconds and then back to 100% normal. This has happened at low and higher speeds a ...

The spring types have a wire ring which fits over the bobbin.

You don't need these with the Motobins bobbins which are made by Grimeca of steel rather than alloy.

I replaced mine a couple of mon ...

I think there are four things to consider:

1) As mentioned above the rear brake master cylinder is attached to the hanger. I have not found a way of swapping the hanger without removing the brake l ...

Yes - it is supposed to work that way.

Mine resets itself once the battery has gained some charge. I do need to switch off the ignition and restart the bike of course.

Exact same exhaust hanger. I'll bet if you searched here you'd find ABS II bikes with cracks at the collector.

Yes - mine!

Be careful how you adjust the pin which engages with the master cylinder piston. There is a recent thread on here which includes reference to adjusting this pin, everything appearing normal, and later ...
