Well I finally got round to fixing my bike and went for a nice spin to trovegas and back to smalsbury. The bike feels great, actually better than before. Still waiting for my breakdown company to provide a comment, They have acknowledged my email but nothing further. Will give them 28 days before I take further action. (This is following my breakdown in Wales whilst doing HTB)

DaddyCool, it needed a strip down so there was nothing that you would have been able to help with but thanks for the thought anyways.

Gooz, I had to jump it off of the car after a full system flush and clean as I drained the battery on the day. Started second time and I got the fine tune adjustments done, etc and let her charge up for a while. Got dressed and she barked to life first time. She feels really smooth now. There was a load of **** and water in the tank.
