Just got it firing!
Hi guys, I thought I'd quickly share my experience with my brand new sport 1200 4v. I've only put 4,500 km's but since new at WOT between 2,000 to 3,500 rpm I've had consistent pinging which has annoyed me to know end.
After many hours reading through forum threads I thought i had nailed it down to poor fueling from factory (it still might). I was going through the process of organising a Rex flash but I thought I'd do some quick trouble shooting first so I went to a local car shop to buy some octane booster. Now an older gentlemen suggested running some lead additive through my bike like in the old cars, anyway long story short it removed 99% of my pinging whilst also improving throttle response in the low rpm range. Infact it's made a remarkable difference, I was able to pull 6th gear from 50km to 180-ish with no issues. Really happy. Thanks guys.
