One of those days!
K2-K6:
They give us something to do and stop us from getting bored, I suppose.
I've got a Triumph speed triple with a metallurgically challenged starter sprag clutch ( shite in other words) so all bump start. If you don't get it going first time it'll usually backfire, which it did inside the Isle of Wight ferry once, dogs were howling, kids crying, it was like a bomb gone off. :-[
And again outside Chelsea barracks, car alarms went off, "security" from the gate came out with real guns! :-[ :-[ :-[

My Pegaso has a self destructing sprag clutch and it makes a hell of a bang at times.
It makes me cringe as it sounds very metallic
haynes66:
ah, takes me back! i had a reliant scimitar like that once. bit heavy to push...
Laverda Dave:
Yep, I can relate to your bad day. See my thread about a disaster! Buy a Mottabatt, great battery :)

That's what it Is! Have had 3 of them on different bike's and until now never had any problems, infact I put one on the 550 3weeks ago. Can only think I left it too long between charges and it discharged so much it wouldn't recover. The ST has the Honda hiss imobiliser which is a bit power hungry. I'm hoping that a good session on the ctec might recover it and that it wouldn't charge from the alternator because it was being given too much too quickly. Hope so because it's a pig to access, when I fitted it last year I made the mistake of connecting the terminals in the wrong order and caused a short which blew the inline fuse which cost £50 to replace!
