On the way home yesterday my front plug started misfiring again. I had to ride about 15 miles with it clunking and juttering. At one point the bike completely stopped and wouldn't start up for a bit. I parked at the side of the road and waited for a while and then tried again. It worked but badly.

This morning my bike wouldn't start with the choke but would with a bit of throttle, but kept stopping. After a few attempts it seems I now have a flat battery.

If I leave the bike and go back in an hour will the battery be better?
And if I've ridden with the front plug not working right for that far and up to 50 mph, do you think the front plug is now dead?

Cheers people

your battry wont be any better really, it will have recovered maybe 5-10% of its charge but you will need to charge it properly b4 u kill it completely. as for your plug you should be able to clean it up with a stiff brush
