yeh the battery i used for that test was a bit weak but it did turn the starter for sure. Im sure a better battery would have done more but i dont know if it would actually start it that way if the bike thinks its ignition isnt on?????

Did he? Has he fixed it? Was it something really really simple but too difficult for Zig?

haha, ok update time. Only a couple of days late too which aint bad for me.
And guess what? Yup, good old green connector. It was the thicker of the wires that run into it, the black/red wire and it had simply burnt and melted the inside of the block.

The thing that took the most time was trying to get the damned thing out of the very tight space but i pesevered and many small cuts on finger tips later it was out.
Ok i dodged the splicing optside the connector a bit till i get something suitably small to do it right but hallelujah it worked and bikes has been fine yesterday and today, woohoo!!

Once again the almightly Orgers are always here to give words of advice and help...a big thank you to you all , i love you guys
