Wow thats pretty organised, its Jan the 1st and you're already getting it together for summer! I wonder when and how long it will be this year?

I had the same issue with my bike - bad starting, front cylinder backfire & wet plug. Cleaned all the connections, changed the plugs but the problem continued. Dealer checked all the electrical system inc coils & relay starter connections etc etc. Everything checked out OK, except the charging system. I have a Mossfet reg/ rec fitted now. I don't know if that was a part of the problem as the awful weather means the bike is hibernating and hooked up to a Ctek optimiser. Still it does start immediately on the button which is good! Feb/ March will reveal whether the fault remains or if it was weak spark from marginal battery voltage.

Happy New Year Chris.
