Only get a mile or so from my home where the moor roads are ridiculously bumpy so as usual I just stand up on the pegs enduro style. The bike starts pitching badly as it's cutting out and then firing again. I pull over and take the seat off figuring that it's a connection that is only working when my big backside is putting pressure on the seat. A little jigging around and all seems well.

I realise that putting hard downward pressure on the left peg is somehow cutting out the side stand switch. I haven't looked at it yet as I figured if it caused a problem I'll just disconnect it and twist the wires together. I'm tempted to take it out all together. So there you go, summink ta watch out fer
