Yep, sounds like a leak mate, silly question probably, but are all your spark plugs screwed all the way in? It's easy to cross-thread the inner two plugs, and if one's not all the way in, it'll make that farty sound too. Cheers, Terry. ;D
I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"

+1 on what Terry says. He knows about farty sounds!

When my bike was making a clatter like that it turns out I was having an issue with one of my spark plug wires.
