Default Half pint

Came home from Dolgellau today in the pouring rain, most of the way on 325cc's of SV650.
Ran the bike at around 6000rpm when I got home till it heated up enough to dry out the front cylinder and start running on both again.
First time it's happened to me and I've ridden through some pretty heavy rain since I got the bike.
Time to get at the front plug and give it a good spray of electrical sealer.

I've got one - it's been sitting on the shelf in my house since I got the bike. Maybe I should get around to fitting it.....

Default Re: SV running on one cylinder.

Incidentally, why did the title of my post get changed to the above?
