Re: Feeble girly problems...
what bike is it?
have you checked the fuel? might be worth adding a drop more
if it doesn't start after that, try bumping it
Re: Feeble girly problems...
Piglet - should have guessed this was you really shouldn't I! My powers of deduction aren't as good as yours evidently.
Anyway.
Did you leave the bike with fuel in the tank? If so, that may be the problem. If left, petrol evaporates but leaves behind a gummy residue in your carb jets, meaning your newly gleaming plugs aren't getting any fuel to ignite.
As previously mentioned though, it may just need bump starting to get everything moving again.
What you need is the special tool known as a 'Dave'. I'll pop over and get it running.
:D 8-)

LOL! Cheeky get. ;)
It does sound a bit bad, doesn't it. Piglet here walked past and mentioned this particular bike when I was trying to jump start my TL, I only posted what I did in the open forum instead of by PM because the whole fuel notion may be of help to others who are struggling to restart their recalcitrant motorcycles after the winter layoff. Not that mine gets 'put to bed' - I ride all year round, simply for fun :)

Oh and last time I checked, the GS500 was also a Twin!

PS I think you've gone a bit overboard on the rear ride height adjustment on your Gixxer mate, judging by the photo...
