EDIT: not run for a while! you dont want it to overheat lol, just a quick spin with the revs high but be aware that you'll keep getting power bursts to be ready to react if you decide to ride it rather than to it stationary.
After a while of running, it's now idling fine, if not slightly under it's usual idle (probably the same, more likely me being paranoid).

Good suggestion, must re-fit fender extender - Any idea of where to get some suitable substitute double sided sticky foam stuff anyone?

And how long/short were those self-tapping screws I probably don't have anymore?
