I have a ZZR1200 BEC which has decided that it wont start.

It was driven into the garage with no problems a few months ago, but now isnt playing....

A new baby means I dont have the time to spend in the lockup that I would normally, and I would like to have it running so I can nip away for a few hours now and then through the summer

So I'm looking for someone who can spare a few hours to help, or who can recommend a mobile mechanic

Car is stored in Cumbernauld...

Second attempt - anyone able to recommend a mobile mechanic, or earn some beer tokens?

There is a guy advertising on gumtree, don't know if his works any good as i've never used him (do all my own work) but worth a shot.

Oh, how is the battery? A low battery can make it difficult to start, it doesn't need to be completely flat. (something quick to check yourself)

I take it this is a/your bike engined Westie/Caterfield trackcar?

If you get no help here try posting over in trackscotland as a few guys over there have such beasties.

Anyone got any input?

I'd much rather use someone who is recommended...
