smell of petrol i dont think so.
there isnt any fuel on the floor or anythin once i get it home to my garage or while i let it warm up in my garage.
i havent really checked once the bike has stalled in its place..

i think the main thing i want to express is that it only dies once i stop, turn the bike around and try to take off. higher revs seems ok. oh and once the bike has been started initally and i take off it is fine.

spark colour? you mean the actualy "spark" dave? i will have a look soon.
