Loose connection somewhere probably, check the battery connections and starter relay area.

Is it still messing about or has that sorted it?

Buy a cheap multimetre and check the charging system and battery as per Sid Squids post in the techy section.If that all checks out OK then look for chaffing in the wiring loom.Usual suspect points are around the headstock,under the seat where the seat bolts protrude into the loom,and under the rear cowling where the loom bends around the subframe.

Hi mate,

Check the loom where it passes the headstock, my naked 99 developed a split in the sleeving here. Also the bolts that hold the side panels on can chafe the wiring too so may be a good place to check, good luck!

Laters,

Mark
