Exhaust at rear end is cack, but the rest is fine, Honda should have built this!

Wahey, One more day to go, one more day for Snetts , ssshhh for Tiny , lol

Have you completley drained the fuel out of the tank and replaced with fresh fuel, try 97ron. Not supermarket fuel, go BP/Shell or my preference Murco.

Video fairly normal with the airbox off.

Ok. You checked for sparks in dark and found none, etc. As it got wet, check the connections, just behind the tank and also the ECU at the rear, but these would be dry now but worth a nose to check they are clean, spray very sparingly with wd40(don't use to much, clean up excess) or electrical spray...
