Hmmm...they’ve not managed to get it started. Not a good sign. So, engine work and a new wiring loom - sounds expensive to me.

Where does it say it’s just electrical. If the plugs are out and the inlet tube off I’d put money on water getting into the engine I doubt it’s electrics.

Masses of potential there. Potential to go either way of course :)

I think that sums it up pretty well. Could be a 10 p fuse or a £10,000 engine rebuild.

Interesting to know where the reserve sits and why this hasn't been the subject of an insurance claim.

Hope Loz gets it at a good price so we can find out :)

Thanks Matte , appreciate all the help i can get on this one , i need to infect coparts computers with Corona virus , But seriously folks this would be prime for me , and an engine rebuild will keep me nicely conforming to self isolation in the garage for a few weeks :rolleyes:

Rebuild is the only way to go , its surprising how easily cranks and con rods get bent , , should be plenty of (how too's ) to keep the go pro active should i be lucky enough to get it .

Thanks to the guys rooting to keep the path way clear

Kindest regards as always
