Pulled into the Tan Hill Inn on Friday afternoon to get out of the rain. One pint of stout later and a little warmer and drier I returned to the bike (R1100GS) but she wouldn't start. Turning over OK but wouldn't fire. WD40 didn't help.

Several hours wait for recovery service and trailered home. :(

Could have been worse. At least I was stuck at a pub!

This has happened once before, after washing the bike and being a bit overenthusiastic with the hosepipe.

I'm a complete mechanical numpty. What should I check / replace to make sure this doesn't happen again?

No seriously, do a search it has been discussed before. Good luck.
