pulled the spark plugs out cleaned made sure i hadent flooded the engine
checked the spark plugs sparked
put easy start in fired up and died
look like im getting fuel to the fuel rail

now wondering if the fuel i put in was shit unleaded in a jerry can for about a month it started first time moments before i put in in the tank

so charging the battery
drained the fuel
and gonna have a look if the maps dropped out
any ideas guys

check ur charge rate at the battery, reg/rec & stator. As for the fuel, how long was the bike sitting cause even just a month or so the fuel can go bad and i've seen a few injector clogged up with crap, but pretty easy to take out and take to get cleaned. Hope this helps

^^+1 on the reg. Was the battery hot after the ride? Also put a multimeter on the battery when you're trying to turn it over and see if the charge dumos under load.

mate dont clean the plugs ,fuck them of get new ones !!! rule them out ,as plugs die very easily due to premium fuel,drain ur fuel ,fresh fuel and re-charge battery ,
the best way to diagnose a issue is the "k.i.s.s" keep it simple stupid" method !! if it went well prior to ur fuel going in start there!!
was it a new battery?? did you fill it with the supplied acid??
stupid i know but, so many people buy new batterys and dont fill with the acid supplied as when they sit for to long on the shelf it dies!! and that way the supplyer can have that batt ery on the shelf fo long periods
and the acid needs to be added then charged!!

Do you have the stock clocks ?
or the ability to plug a set back in ?

I really dont like the huge dash on mine but sticking a paperclip
in the dealer plug and bringing up the fault codes has got me
out of the shit before now.
