Afternoon all, first post etc.
Finally got me a 2005 uly after years of wanting a lightning, so happy with it.

Had a few issues with the electrickery but will get there in the end eh.
Anyone had any issues with it not starting, then starting randomly, cutting out then back in, etc? I think its ignition switch or kill switch, any other suggestions?

Ttfn, Jim
