Around 50 mph at high revs going up a slight hill on the motorway my 81 Aircooled 1970cc developed a missfire,
pulled over waited a couple of minutes deciding wether to carry on or not, decided to go and was fine, until i resched 50 again
Confused ? I am............

Mines doing that - at 65. Not fully sussed it yet but suspect it might be rotor arm (limiter kicking in way too early) although inside of dizzy cap appears to be shedding its skin too. Not a spares outlet for miles here so will wait till I get/limp home.
