So yesterday I decided to replace my slightly leaking Cam cover gasket. After about 2 hours of cursing and struggling with all the plastic crap under the tank, I finally got it replaced. I then tried to start the bike but it only cranked, no fuel pump and no spark. I eventually traced the fault to the bank angle sensor which I had remembered dropped on the floor. After a bit of vigorous shaking it came good....must have gotten the pendulum stuck and now the bike runs fine. Note to Mr Honda....Can you make the ears on the quick connect fitting on the fuel tank a tiny bit longer so I can actually squeeze them in or move the tank outlet to a place that is accessible. I don't have large hands but trying to release the fuel line in a very small space is a real pain.
