Oli, time to stamp yer feet hun...that bikes badddddddd

Could it be the ignition switch? Just a thought Petes ZZR wouldn't start a couple of months back and the battery was fine. Got fixed under warranty.

That's a point I mentioned your bike in passing to a guy at a garage the other day and he mentioned the whole 3 strikes and they're out thing, surely by law it ain't fit for purpose and they have to swap it for a different brand new one?

what so he can go through the whole shebang again? Nah sod it, get rid and get yoursen another gixxer Ollie

I don't want another gixxer - no more point and shoot riding for me. If I'm honest, I don't want a different bike at all - just a reliable one

I'm sure it was solely that one that was duff. Why go for a completely different bike if you like it? But FFS I'd be put off buying new bikes for life if I'd have had the probs you've had with that. But as I've said before, I'd have demanded another one when they had to do the engine work.

Hope you get it sorted Oli, just real bad luck ~

Yeah will do, just out of the bath, rather large pile of stuff dumped that needs sorting, but just going to chill now, do it tomorrow, 1381.4 miles travelled though.

Cheers Mark.

Yes, still waiting on a part Maria

However, we'd already decided we weren't doing it. Seemed to be too much focus on the evening entertainment for our taste.

Good to see Smudgepants is still around though.
