When I was a nipper every other morning in winter (every other day was my brothers job) I'd have to pop my Dad's black cab bonnet open and spray that into the air intake so the bastard would start and we could go to school.
The Black cabs AA card! :D

Years ago I had an old diesel Transit van that wasn't the best at starting on cold days, so I used the old easy start on it. It wasn't long before the bloody thing refused to start in any weather unless it had a snort of the stuff. I'm ashamed to say that my Trannie was addicted to Easy Start...

It got so bad that I had the engine refurbished by some mates and was told on pain of death to not use ES again...

There's a gap between seat and rack/box and spray is coming through. Got to think of something to block this up, maybe a piece of plastic/perspex to fill gap cabled tied to rack. Not great for a new bike.

I have had a few bikes with tidys on and never had it as bad as this. Problem being the short arse end of these bikes, along with yamaha official tail tidy. Cracking bike though.

Any ideas appreciated. 👍
