You're bike has resembled its kit form form for 5 months, the engine has been apart and it's looked very sorry for itself...

Then magically, you put it all back together, and 3 starter relays, an oil change, a radiator flush and repair, a swingarm sanding and repainting and a set of valve clearances later, it fires back into life again!

Thanks for your help with the valves Gunterpot. The smile on my face again is almost as big as the one I had the day I rode it for the first time!

Nice one.

Is great when you finish a bike. A real sense of achievement.

Best hurry Dabz, the good weather is coming...... :D

it's not from lack of trying Jon lol :P looks now to be fuel issues not battery (sorry to hijack thread SF)

Hope you find the issue. If you need a hand just ask.

Don't do what we did, go through 3 'broken' starter relays, just to realise we hadn't switched the alarm off!
