       Starting issues

       Hi Guys, I think I have found the cause of the starter motor and
       relay failing. I have always thought the MT didn't start very
       well but put it down to a low battery as it doesn't get used
       much. Even after going on a trip and having a fully charged
       battery didn't make much difference though. Then the
       decompression solenoid has failed. After locating it via  one of
       you very helpful guys (Tim, I  think, sorry but I cannot see the
       post), you can manually operate the decompression lever, the
       bike turned over really easily and started with little effort.
       Now all I need is to spend around £270.00 on the solenoid. >:(
