Hopefully just a fuse :) Little fuse box under your seat check them all, swap for a spare if in doubt.

the Headlights are on a separate fused circuit, so it does indeed sound as if that's your problem, if the fuse for the lighting appears to be good, change it for a spare anway, should that not work check the wires going to the actual fuse holder under the plastic block as that can break.

Cheers Mark.

Was all well and good... Finally got it sorted...

Rode about a mile... And she cut out again. Same problem as before.

Any ideas ?

did you change a fuse to get it running again? Or did it just randomly work?

What Dave said...how did you get it going again in the first place??

Sounds like a short somewhere. Check behind the seat bolts, as this is a known place for it- the wires rub against the bolts and wear through.

There was one spare fuse left so used that to get it started again.
