The bike still wouldn't fire up and he got concerned when the battery leads started to smoke Any ideas | My 916SPS did this the other day when I tried to turn it over for its monthly garage run. Needless to say - it didn't start. I find it handy to have a fire extinguisher nearby - to put out the flames caused by blood-boiling-frustration! This is also known as "character" and is why we love these machines that cause to jump up and down in frustration! RX |
Spoke to my brother the day after to find that she had fired up after spell on the optimate. He did confess to holding the starter button down for a tad longet than he should heve.
