Hi,

I made the mistake of leaving bike out in heavy rain after which it started sporadically running on one cylinder.

This seemed to clear itself after a few runs and i thought was all OK.

Then i got caught out again. But this time bike fails to start. Turns over splutters a bit. But fails.

Thinking this was damp electrics. Took fuel tank off and tried to get to top plug. But i doing so i took fuel line, ground and pump off. But also two rubber hoses at front of tank. Drain hoses? One of these seemed to be full of water.

Thinking back i think i have seen water sitting under petrol cap when i have refueled bike.

Is this a blocked drain pipe, ment to drain water from around petrol cap? Could i have water in fuel?


I charged battery and this made no difference.

Any ideas?

What would be wet fuel symptoms?
