been out today bike was going well except that every once and a while it wouldn't start.
eventualy it just refused point blank to go and just as a mate turns drives past with a van - lucky coincidence - i find that the HT lead connection to the spark plug cap is loose.
now, never having to have fitted one before and not being able to find a diagram.
in my cap the there's a little screw that screws into the HT lead, on this screw are two little, what can only be described as, mini-ninja throwing stars.
Are the wires of the ht lead supposed to be wrapped around / sandwiched between these throwing stars?
As it is i've just threaded the screw into the HT lead and shoved it all back together - and the bike now starts fine.
