Re: bike wont start
As an upgrade and tuning tip (reducing weight ) drill a little hole in the plastic cover over the fuse as a drain.
Re: bike wont start
Fuse was looking a bit manky. Have replaced and will see what happens. May also purchase a new starter relay, anyone know if other makes are compatible or where to get them short of from the factory?

Re: bike wont start
Bike all sorted now after a thorough going over . Replacement alarm fitted , a couple of relays and leak in fuel tank sorted . The leak in the tank was thru the four wires to the pump , probably caused by ethanol ingress . I solved it by cleaning the area then putting a small amount of araldite around the wires and resin block they go thru and warming gently with a heat gun . Problem solved .
The biggest surprise was refitting the tank after being off its locating studs for a few weeks , would not fit ! It is on maximum adjustment at the hinge end and I ve had to remove the bushes at the front to get it to bolt back down . Its grown by about 5mm ! I can only assume that ethanol has expanded it and once it was released from its fastenings it took up its new shape . Very frustrating , but sorted and ready for some summer tarmac !
