North East conspiracy - must be the cold attacking the brushes, but once fired up that fresh clean air is great for combustion..!!
Had her out at the weekend running brill but weather so cold, a little oil leak from the rocker cover where when removed the engine temp sensor and also a little oil from the oil cooler connections to the engine cover, ordered o rings from Ducati Leeds usual brill service..Get them fitted this weekend and maybe a just a little hylomar to apply we will see...Springs just round the corner!!
Update on my starting issue - the bike had been left for 4 weeks now and on Sunday I touched the button and the motor burst into life, Sundays weather, cold and sunny with threatening clouds looming, anyways went out for a 25 mile blast just to keep all in order, bike running awesome, saw the rain in my direction coming so thought lets get back home then suddenly a burst of hail descended down on me, couldn't believe it, it was like ball bearings hitting my helmet, made it back before 6 weeks of polishing was wasted, all is good.

Hello all, my summer has been good on the multi, she is still firing up every time with just a press of the button, even with the Chinese starter (not sure really where it came from) but all is good, had to change the rear brake slave cylinder and put a new seal kit in the caliper and now all good - reckon the slave was an original, hope your all doing well..Paul
