    Can't really help Jack, I don't have enough technical knowledge myself. Shame you couldn't of got out today though, it's been a great day for it. I was going to come over the Warminster myself today (a friend of mine works in Boreham Mill at 3TR FM) but turned around at Melksham.

    Fingers crossed you can sort it out soon

    I assume the solenoid... starter is turning over...


    Might well be worth checking out side stand switch & rectifier If you only here a clicking noise then its possibly the rectifier or flattish battery8-)

    Well had same problem on a 929 Blade turned out to be the Rectifier... So end up replacing both Battery & Rectifier (rectifier about 60 - 70 notes depending on bike of course).

    Hope all goes well for you. 8-)

    Have you tried bump starting it? As I had similar on a gixer and if I got it bump started it didn't come back for a few weeks so never bothered fixing it. Also make sure the battery is charged 100% in the current climate this can have the engine spin but not enough to fire up.

    Might be wortwhile checking your spark pugs too

    It might sound obvious but is there any fuel in it? Can you smell petrol from the exhaust when it was turning over? Does that model have a fuel pump?

    Suggest - Remove the rider seat, unplug the ECU (black box) and reconnect it. On older bikes that sometimes works.
