CV slide flutter?

Quick thread. I won't bore you with how I was racing a Ducati and severly overrevved my bike etc etc. When running the bike in "test Mode" (see photo) I note my CV slides flutter. Is this CV slide flutter normal? As the bike only occasionally fires on front cyl (good hot spark) I'm thinking I'm out of time causing just a bit of blowback, thus the flutter. Manual cam chain tensioners installed

I would not draw any conclusion from what the carb slides do when running without the airbox attached and closed. Did you do a compression test?

As far as I know its normal. Mine does it too with the airbox open or off.

Thanks Crankenfine and Matt365. I pulled the valve covers and lined up the timing marks per maunal. All line up fine. Good to hear flutter is normal Matt. Did not run a compression test. Next on the list. Again thanks for responding
