Very good and reasonably priced. Arrived within 2 days of ordering

That should be the one you need. I've checked fowlers and the fz8 relay is the same part number as above 👍 but feel free to make sure yourself just in case

Thanks, you are a star.I have phoned them to check as my year is a 2010 whereas the webpage shows 2011, I had't seen your comment re Fowlers when I phoned, but Moto electrical were really helpful and said to be on the safe side I should just take the solenoid off and check the part number, which I will do, but it sounds as though this will be the place to get it from.So thank you very very much, saved me hours of searching !Best wishesClive
