Only tank slapper i had was coming out that bottom bend and gettin on the power too early on the bumps up the straight and a "MEGA" Tank slapper the whole straight and tight bum hole at the end.
My god doesn't one of them rattle your brains and frighten the crap out of you. Couldn't get off the gas through fright.
Thanks AGE
Thats a good thing mate, the best way to deal with a tank slapper is to accelerate through it, if you were to shut off the gas u are likely to make the slapper worse not better.

Ok sorted the trapped air. Cabled tied back the lever over night and hey presto all seems fine now.
Just can't have lever on the shortest setting i'm used as it still comes right into handlebar sometimes. This is due to the warped discs "KNOCKING BACK THE PADS" as AGE as mentioned.
So new discs now.

makes sense...
warped discs could be overheating the fluid, introducing air..
tying the lever back is a good trick innit?!
