Ignition lock lead

The lead from the bottom of the ignition lock is failing - i.e. shorting. Having difficulty sourcing a replacement. Any ideas?

Starter solenoid

The solenoid has broken, but the starter itself is ok. How do I find a replacement solenoid at reasonable cost?

Also, there are Motorgrip (German) starters with solenoid on fleabay for £65 delivered! Are they ok?

Alternator belts

I changed my first belt after the recommended number of miles. However last time I decided to just leave the belt to see what happened. After loads more miles than the recommended change interval it started to squeak a bit, indicating it was slipping. So I changed it. The bike has covered 114k with ...

Shaft drive universal joint phasing

Is it possible to see the position of the front UJ via moving the rubber boot, and using a mirror on a stick, or will I need to remove the swing arm in order to check alignment?

Hazzard warning lights

OMG what a muppet! I have had the bike for more than 10 years and covered over 100k miles but not realised that was a button and not just a warning light. Rude and offensive responses would have been justified. Apologies for wasting time.

Hazzard warning lights

CCP

The CCP which was fitted but them removed was light green. i have replaced it but with no impact. The bike is standard with standard exhaust. I assume I need to connect 30, 87 and 87a - do you agree?

Vibes

Many thanks for your comments.

Some basic questions please -
Where is the CCP on the bike?
Mine was removed and given to me when a dealer sorted an intermittent electrical failure problem - which turned out to be a wiring fault on the immobiliser. I still have the CCP.
I assume that putting it ...

R1100S vibration

Had a replacement engine fitted after substantial compression level loss on the right side. The new one starts, stops and runs well but vibrates more than the last engine at mid revs. I have balanced the injectors. I took it to a main dealer who had a bit of a look. I asked whether the timing may be ...
