strange one that! maybe dump valve cant release enough preassure so the excess is goin to metering head? (maybe)

but it seems better with it off! so its stayin off! you get some really funny looks when it dumps people think your doin a million miles an hour..

mine used to chatter on a dump valve there was a small piece of copper like a restrictor in the t piece and it wasn't letting enough air through, i snipped it off with pliers and all was good, except my dump valve now works and does my head in

i'm short shifting just to avoid it

i'm saving for some new hoses, so i cant be bothered to pay 15 quid for a blanking plug only for it to be useless in a month or so.

i dont mind the noise, i actually like it when your gining it some right foot, but for town driving its just plain shit.
