Thanks Luddite for that suggestion: it would appear that the dealer I got the S4R from, who did a general service, used raspberry-colour Motul oil because when I tip the bike I can see blood in the oil sight-glass. I've never seen such gaudy stuff before! Since I've only managed maybe 50 miles on the bike since I got it, I hadn't bothered to check the fluids. Odd that the radiator had red in it too, but maybe Motul make coolant too?

Anyway, big relief, and thanks again. I owe you a beer!

You know those fault finding charts for an engine that won’t start, the ones that begin “is there petrol in the tank?”, and everyone thinks “what kind of person is that aimed at?”
That’s you that is
