Right now i'm thinking it's not fuel mixture levels, i reckon that side of things is okay, although there is a very small nagging doubt about moisture in the tank but deep down i don't feel it is this.
I'm thinking it's an electrical issue.
As i said before it's been pointed out to me that it's similar to the issue i had when i first realised the side stand switch was on its way out, so because of the ridiculous location of it, and lack of access, i bypassed it using a ScotchLock connector.
Whether something has failed there i'm not sure, and due to working hours i don't have any daylight to play with at the moment, not until the weekend anyway.
I'll try it with the stand up this morning and see if it makes any difference, and let you know later.
I still have my "old" plugs i could try putting back in, but both sets are Iridium and i just can't see them being the culprit.
If i had an iffy ignition switch would that not just kill everything? I'm getting power to lights and everything else, although saving power by making sure everything is off when trying to start it.
If it was the coils were breaking down, then yet again i would've thought the bike would've run a bit rough all round, possibly randomly die on me in running, or misfire, but it just doesn't.
By the way, bike electrics are just not my thing.
I'll keep you posted.

More people are born because of alcohol than will ever die from it.
