Mood: I AM looking forward to racing..
Help required plus a sorry tale...

She let me down last night. For the first time in 2 years so can't complain. Non starter. I'm pretty sure it's something to do with the fuel pump. When you turn on the ignition and kill switch, the pump usually runs up for a few seconds. It isn't now. I know where the pump is, but is there a relay for it I should check first? Or any other things I should check?

The sorry tale? Well I waited over 2 and a half hours for the RAC. In the end they sent a local contractor. They brought a flatbed lorry with a wheeled contraption which locks the front wheel of the bike in. This then straps to the flatbed. Away we went, first right hand bend, crash, over she goes.

So broken fuel pump, fairing, mirror, peg, etc. etc. Not bad considering I only popped to a mates house and didn't even crash!
