    Julian do u find any similarities between my problem and the last two prob reported here, kind of same apart from the plug color. My plug is totally oily black after the decarb job.

        My bike also suffer from this issue. Whenever i am riding wit a pillion ( both of us weigh less than 55), the pickup reduces and bike hesisates to climb up the rpm.
        But the bike is really good to ride solo. Though the vibrations and tappet sound is high from abt 60 - 75kmph.

            the excessive drop in power sounds like a jetting issue, but it could also be a wrong tappet setting if they've messed it up. the bike will sound right but will hesitate to pick up good speeds.

            in your case, there seems to be plug fouling primarily because of oil leakage but in addition, there could also be a rich mixture condition.

            bikes not pulling properly with a pillion could also mean an excessive lean mixture. it's hard to diagnose any problem sitting at a pc, nothing like a proper diagnosis by a proper mech. since many people are not getting proper support from tvs svcs i would suggest taking the bikes to an outside mech to diagnose the issue, then take it back to the svc to get the work done. the mechs are probably just inexperienced and not qualified enough. nothing else.

              Try adjusting the chain, with a pillion it lots its free play therfore the pickup reduce, check your manual for chain adjustment.

                              Is the translation done using Google language tools. Looks like it didnt translate all of it. Whats Ralenti?

                                Ralenti is a Spanish term for neutral.
