The curse of rain

Aprilias never seem to fare well in the rain, and April has been a very bad month.

But on a bright note, this time it was Jean's bike to suffer :-)

Last Sunday after her Peg spending about 5 hours in torrential rain it refused to start. The clocks/ignition would go off after 2 turns of the engine.

As soon as the bike was recovered home I opted to switch the clocks for a spare one I had, as I suspected she had befallen the same fate as mine last year.

The bike started after about 4 turns, but took a while to sound right.

I switched the clocks back and it fired 1st time.

Fingers crossed it was just waterlogged electrics, but that means the bike is back at the back of the garage awaiting my attention.
