Thanks for the pointers. I’ll have another look at the manifold. I couldn’t sense a leak when I looked but I don’t suppose it has to be a big to make a fair noise.

I’m a bit baffled. I’ve got what sounds like an exhaust leak on my 420 tourer. Running up to 3000 revs if on more than the lightest throttle with the engine under any load there’s a tsst-tsst-tsst that then peters out over 3000 revs. I’ve put on a marigold glove and tried to cap the tailpipe to see ...
