Dear All

I normally start my 999 in the morning in neutral with the stand down and the choke on. I went to start it this morning and just got an ominous clicking noise.

I got on the bike and shifted up and down through the box back to neutral to check neutral was properly engaged, lifted the weight of the bike off the stand and the bike started.

The bike continued to go when I put the weight back on the stand.

Pretty wierd huh?

Any ideas?

All help appreciated.

Dave
