Hi,

You should NOT be using leaded. Unleaded is the way to go. Has been for years for motorbikes.

I don't know if anyone else on the list has seen the press release for the new @. Basically it is a detuned VTR engine putting out approx. 100 bhp. It will be called the Varader or something like that. No pictures as yet but I think it will be on show at the next major bike show, Milan I think.

Ciao for now...

	Greetings from the Philippines......

	I am the proud owner of a 97 RD07 which I believe to be the only @ currently in the Philippines.

	1) I have put just over 2000km's on the bike and consider the bike just about run in. I have recently started to open the throttle more and have noticed that at about 5500 - 6500 rpm under hard acceleration the bike splutters or misses. This is even more noticeable when riding on an upward incline. I can only imagine that it is either a fuel problem or spark plugs. I am running on leaded / premium fuel (The guy who imported the bike for me told me to use leaded, is this correct?). Before I start dismantling this weekend does any one have any suggestions.

	2) My bike is a Japanese import. I have no dealer support. All manuals are in Japanese. I as do not intend to take up Japanese at night school - can any of the guys living in England advise me where I can get a manual from for my @. My mum lives in Liverpool so I could get her to organize and send out to me.           


	Thanks in advance - Great list....
