ok asyou all prob know by i've had my fair share of problems with this 04 factory
well i have more
went for a nice run with the missus on back today - no problems, don't give it the berries as she doesn't like it, but still made 107mph nice nad gradual like.
then decided to go and blow out some cobwebs, had 2 moments, the third was definately not in my "recovering from accident" head, bike slid to the side on a right hander. pulled over to look at rear tyre, went to set off
NOWT
can hear the starter mtoar ticking, but electrics cut out, and nothing. rev limiter has been reset indicating battery removal or loss of power or short
waved down 2 fine lads on IL4's and they gave me a bump start, got home
still wont start, new battery put in 3 days ago showing 11.7v How is that possible after a long run (2hrs) and then on a blast
so start stripping her down to
A find oil that must be going on rear tyre
B try to fix starting problems i've had for a while
Remove air filter housing - full of oil, obviously i've put too much in! whats the clean out procedure anybody please?
Any suggestions on starting issues? tried new battery, all connectors are secure, relays not burnt out, starter is clicking, clutch is making a ****** noise battery keeps being drained, running battery voltage is 13.5v
now another thing, i don't oil my chain, i clean it every other day with wd40 and remove excess fluid, so why does y chain have wet shiny oil on it at the end of a ride?
i really need to find these answers and fix them with as little cost as possible or she's going up for sale
does anyone know how to clean a tyre of what could be soaked inoil splats, causing loss of adhesion.
want to say thanks to the 2 lads who stopped and helped, t spoonz for sending me the clutch sc and to all you guys on here who are going to help with this, cos if this can't be sorted then i'm off back to the dark side of IL4
