Don't want to hijack the OP's thread so I sent you a pm...
Agree with almost all of this... Just one thing though - I would use properly crimped and heat-shrink covered bullet connectors instead of...

Just remembered something else. After the bike left me stranded the other day one thing I found was that one of the connections from the...
OK, I tried to check some resistance measurements. First up, the meter I have probably isn't the best (it's a Rapitest DM25 which I've had for...
I'll get the meter out again. I think I'd rather it was the stator - I think on these bikes the rotor is attached to the flywheel in such a way...
Thanks for your replies. Derek, I thought I should be getting 14 - 14.5V at pretty much all rpm (it's what I get on the 1198S but I think that...
Yes, I have an Optimate lead permanently attached to the battery - I'm going to plug it into that in the first instance.
I just ordered a battery voltage monitor from SparkBright (I think you have one of those?). Should arrive tomorrow so we'll see what that tells us.
Still having problems with the SP3. A few weeks ago it left me stranded, turned out to be a flat battery, a consequence of not charging. I...
I agree there are definite similarities @Robarano. I'll check out the battery first. I've already fitted a set of Stu's leads, which made a...
That doesn't look too horrendous if the worst comes to the worst. What does a "flywheel holding tool" look like (you can tell I've never opened...
@bootsam - thanks for that, worth keeping an eye on. Changing the sprag doesn't look that difficult, apart from undoing the nut on the end of the...
@RickyX - I did wonder about simple flooding; I forgot to say that I put the bike on the Optimate on Saturday evening before opening a bottle!...
Nothing like that,
As per the title really. Took the bike out on Saturday evening, just a short run to the nearest cash machine (about 5 miles). Bike started fine...
Nice to see there's some consistency here... My 1198 had its MoT a few weeks ago - Termis, no db-killers, passed no problem.
Rather surprisingly the Manual doesn't mention mirrors as far as I can see...
Surely the "offence" should be carrying a pillion without having properly attached footrests, not not having the footrests just in case you should...
I got an advisory for not having footrests (with a pillion seat fitted) years ago on my 916 - passed the MoT though.
