Some good advice on here for me, iv'e recently purchased a 2012 660Z which iv'e enjoyed riding and getting right into the bike, it's a totally different type of bike to what iv'e been used to for the last 30 odd years or so of biking, anyhow i put the bike away after a decent but wettish boxing day, didn't use it for a few days after due to icy roads and been lazy over the xmas period, went to start it up a couple of days ago with no joy, battery seemed ok but i put it on charge anyway and bought new plug for it, tried it again yesterday after putting fully charged battery back on along with new plug(genuine ngk) and still no joy, didn't have much garage time on my hands yesterday so i just give it a good spraying of wd40 and left it, managed to start it today and went for a couple of hours ride with no probelms but think i'd better start doing some wet weather maintenance sharpish as i usually keep my bikes for a long time and hopefully the XT will be a keeper as well.
