Hello Kai,

How are you making the temperature comparison?

What do the spark plugs tell you? Are they both the same color?

My R6 had a similar problem once. The problem was a bad spark plug. It would spark at idle, but it would not work well at high speed.. The plug I replaced it with was also bad, which made trouble shooting difficult. I finally started swapping wires and plugs from side to side. When I swapped the plugs, the problem followed.

I noticed the problem because after a short rest, you could touch one cylinder head, but the other one would still be too hot to touch.

Good luck,

Bruce

Hi Bruce

Thanks, was not the sparking plug or cable - the timing is wrong on the bike, I have to replace the cams :-((
