i am loving it the stress ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!

Couple questions first:
How olds the battery?
Is it fully charged...should be kept on trickle!
Have you checked connections are clean and not corroded?
Have you taken out the plug and checked for a strong spark?
Check kill switch connections and earths.

Check these items first shepy...

right oh bruv will be having a look later will keep you posted battery is was not on trickle last week but has been since yesterday and is fully charged havent had chance to kick it will be tryimg later
