			I would drain carb, and change the plug. 
After that try another coil if you can borrow one.

			Thanks to everyone who contributed. 
I have now done 2 club trials and the pre 65 2 day - all on 1 plug. A BPR5ES. 
I did get a supply of BP4ES (equivalent) plugs but never had to use them, as I try only to change one thing at a time. 
The solution, as jon v8 suggested, was ignition - new coil and HT lead. 
Now runs really well, and the carb adjusters from Billet Parts makes it so much easier. 
Thanks again 
Ross

			Almost the same, apart from the flywheel off and sheared woodruff key, and seized, forks and shock leaking. 
But they didn't set on fire, which the really helpful Police man had prophesied. 
Thanks for asking

			Just a little back ground. 
Recovered through an advert on gumtree, Police not interested enough to accompany when I went to get it. 
Complaint to chief constable and my MP (Alister f**king Darling) not really made any difference. 
Eventually the guy I got if back from was arrested and charged, I went to court on the 22nd April as a witness, accused failed to show up and there is now a warrant for his arrest. 
And so it goes on, and on. 
Thanks for asking.
