I had a grumbly general relay on my first Monster. I couldn't get to the dealer for a while, when it played up, but I helped it along for a couple of weeks by putting it in my pocket when I got to work, this ensured a reliable start up for the run home.
Try putting your relay in your airing cupboard or on a radiator for a day and see if it makes any difference.. Keep your spare relay somewhere dry and warm.

I did also experience the old broken wire in the loom round the headstock syndrome on that one, on another occasion.
Back shelf of the aga is where that relay is going then, going to try the handlebar wiggle first, will be doing that Saturday will post what I find, thanks.....Ady
