It began firing on one in the wet - and now straight from start up.

I suspect a dodgy HT lead - as my S1 did the same thing. Does this sound right ?

Cheers

Check the plug wires. Either its not seated correctly allowing water in, or the wire rubbed through against the engine.

all done - fixed the problem, a lot easier than I anticipated.

Thats two Buells I have had both with the same problem, fixed by changing the HT leads. Ho hum

What is a HT lead? I never heard of it.
