On a side note the bike has this fitted:



It's a Plasma Booster, it's connected to the coil wires plus to the each side of the carbie there is also a black earth wire and then a brown wire that looks as if it come loose and I have no idea where it goes! Could this be causing the problem?


This is where the booster connects to the side of the carbie on each side (only this side has the earthing wire)

My greatest fear in life is that when I die my better half will sell my Ducati's and tools for the price I told her I paid for them!

Why's that? Is it just a gimmick?

the wires to the carbs are the heater kit.  nothing to do with the box.

the carbs are different internally, so even with the same jetting a 900 carb will work differently to a 400 carb.

It's the M400

Put the NOS carb in today with the jets from the original carb and it runs beautifully. I haven't ridden such a small bike in 20 years and I was living it  ;D
