Right- back from catering at a school fair- I immediately lifted the tank and got to the electrics with grease- which I hope will do the trick along with the side stand cut off switch.

A friend mentioned that over time the HT leads (leads which come from the spark plug)will naturally begin the degrade and may not transfer the current so well.

When should I replace HT leads- the bike is an 03 with 15,000miles on the clock- the leads show no sign of degradation/cracking. ( oh and are they easy to do, are there any recommended sites for this type of job- if required? )

Thanks in advance
