  2. Sniff must have caught the virus. I thought this thread would have been filled to the brim with corona memes

    Indeed mate. I drove launches, but occasionally used to be out on a Rhib in the middle of winter, and by eck it was cold. I drive a desk now, so look back with rose tinted glasses thinking it was a great job, although it could be cold on a Launch as well at times

    The way I do it is through https://postimages.org/ Easy to do and when you load a picture onto it, it gives you a list of options. If you copy the link titled 'hot link for forums' then paste that link into your post

    Well worked through bud. You'll need to pick up a manual, if you haven't already

    Welcome aboard matey. Plenty of pictures, we like pictures
  10. If there was a large spark, there will be some scorch marks from the arcing. Look for any wires with the insulation cracked , or bare wires touching the horn or engine I'm assuming you hadn't carried out any work immediately before the problem started. If you had, then look around the area you were working on.

    Welcome to the forum matey. Always fancied a vmax, but no room and more importantly, no money

    I agree mate. Done my time as a year round rider but stepped back a few years ago when I got caught out at work one night shift and it took me over 3hrs to ride through a blizzard to get home. I have kept my Hinckley Bonnie out the shed this winter but it has been pouring down just about every day since New Year so it's sat under it's cover
  17. The battery should sit at around 14v on the charger. Low 'gas' light...There is fuel in it? When bridging the starter, are you getting a spark when it's cranking? Are the plugs wet when you've cranked it over
