    Glad you didn't do what I did.
    I took it all apart, split the air box, struggled to get the filter in. Fitted it all back, 2 hrs.
    I went to start her up, nothing. Checked fuses under the seat, still not starting.
    Stripped it all down, took the airbox off and ad a look to see if I had dislodged a wire. All looked ok, so put it all back together. Another 2.5 hrs.

    Still wouldn't start. Had a brew and a butty, 10 smokes, and took tank off again.

    6 hrs later, still not starting.

    That was until I flicked the kill switch. :eek:
