traced the problem (tbc when I fit a new one £££) - intermittent fault with temp sensor - took it out and tested (with pan of water on stove) and multimeter - all good - fkin thing! Tested again got to 80 degC (resistance in spec - lowering with increased temp) this time with heat removed (temp reducing) so did the resistance (which would have read as increased temperature in error. Bastid. New sensor £68 from Fowlers :eek managed to find one (OEM new) on Ebay for £35.
Anyhow this convinced me to but another bike - VFR1200R !
