too rich fuel mixture is one possible cause
make sure your air cleaner is new/clean
put the air cleaner to summer setting
make sure choke is off properly

I just put a brand new air filter in and hasnt dont anything, im leaning more towards to rich as i believe it hasnt had a tune up for quite some time. It doesnt have a choke and i have no idea how to set the filter to summer setting. I disconnected the pipe that runs to the exhaustfrom the air filter for when you live in sub zero temps and it seems to have done something.
Cheers for your help mate

If you have removed that pipe that runs to airbox from zorst, than that is pretty much the same as switching to summer setting.
Youre carby will have a choke, its just automatic.
