My curvey has broke itself! (running on one after a lay-up.)
I parked it up a few weeks ago with the intention of going right over it and making sure it goes through the MOT. Well with bad weather, overtime etc, its just sat abandoned in the back garden since then. So I thought i'd give it a blast in today. ******* thing wouldn't start.
 When it tried it only fired up on one cylinder. Do you think its sulking as I've abandoned it and been riding my winter scooter!

Re: My curvey has broke itself!
You chose a scooter over your actual motorbike. I'd say it's tantrum is justifiable.
None the less best to drain the carb bowls, and inspect the plug caps. Jambo

Re: My curvey has broke itself!
The title should read 'i abandoned my curvy in a cold wet back garden and ignored it for the family hairdryer so it broke a bit'!
My curvey is lubbely in this weather, still rides well and warms up quickly, and cus i've been nice to it and fed it M&S Fuel all year it's not being a bitch back. Good luck gettin' it back on the road. |
