Hi Richard, yes my bike has ran perfectly since, The Inch Perfect Guys first changed the thermostat switch but then I still had issues and they believed the issue with me dropping the bike damaging the thermostat had as John says caused some sort of spike, Matt sent me 2 components to fit as they was sure it was one or the other, I fitted both and have since been living the dream ?

I’ve been to a trial today and all seemed well but after an hour it cut out, struggled to start it, did a few more sections, turning the bike off at some sections whilst waiting in the queue, It was  starting back up ok then it cut out on me again in a section, then couldn’t get it going, waited 5 minutes, then it fired up, did a load more sections then after stopping breifly in a queue it would not start, after trying 20 times to kick it up and doing 6 resets I waited another 5 minutes and tried again, it fired up,

it’s as if the issue is when it’s hot , the fan comes on as it should, ...

I road on and this time it cut out on me whilst in 4th gear riding at reasonable pace between sections , 

waiting 5 minutes and began the 20 kicks to fire it up, it started so I carried on, i by this point was on my last lap, I made it to the last but 4th section of my trial when it cut on again in the section, I waited 10 minutes and tried again to kick it up, it wouldn’t start, I pushed the bast**d up a hill and back to the van, another 15 minutes later I tried to kick it up again to no avail, gave up and went home again with out finishing.
