Hi,
Looks pretty good that
My guess is that either the voltage regulator has gone and the CDI has blown or stator plate needs replacing.
Might be a good place to start checks.
Cheers

What a stroke of luck, getting a fast one.
It looks like the red/greys are taking over

I remember being at the IOM TT one year when "Men Only" were sponsoring Suzuki I think and Linzy Drew (one for the old timers) how can I say this......erm entertained the crowd
Strange thing is I can't remember a single race of the whole fortnight

The red and greys look fast even when stationary!
Nice bike, welcome to a great forum with lots of advice and support.

Many thanks for the warm welcome guys, apparently the lady owner who owned her was out one day and she just died on her !!!!
Ive got my fluke at hand just waiting for this treble man flu to go!
All the advise is very welcome

actualy the red ones are crap, but positive discrimination of the political correctnessness requires the manufacturers to make some red bikes

Before I attempt to fire her up this weekend where do we sit these days on the auto lube? Do we trust it or go premix ?

Is it clear that it's working ok other than the fact you can see the oil in the pipes and the level going down?
