Breakdown

[ianboydsnr]

did 250miles today all over Cumbria and the yorkshire dales, was in reeth, having an ice cream, when a Vstrom rider parks next to my twinspark 1150 and it falls over, no real damage, slight mark on one of the wheels, so off to Richmond, then back via Tan hill and Kirkby stephen, then down the 683 to Devils bridge and on to home through the lake district, after doing 50 miles with the orange light on, i fill up in Cockermouth 22.7 litres, start bike to pull away and bike stalls and wont restart, only 1/4 mile from home, so push home, at home with helmet off and earplugs out, notice the pump making an unusual whine, did a serch on here and someone who had the same problem, as soon as the dealer mechanic had heard it, said it was a disconnected QD fitting, pulled them both apart and reconnected them, pump now sounds back to normal, just need to charge the battery up
