ok well i checked for any leaks, there's was a tiny air leak at the inlet manifold. the rubber o ring that came with the oko didn't fit properly, and was in bad shape from factory. i replaced that. pulled the exhaust off again and tried re-fitting, it will not go up any more, possibly a dodgy exhaust from factory, i sealed the whole area up with exhaust sealer. it's now only glowing a tiny bit, its really faint glowing. also i dropped the e clip a notch on the carby. for the small ride in my back yard, the bike feels really really good, the best i've ever felt it. taking her out tomorrow for a proper test ride, hopefully everything is all good!
