K100 FuelInj woes

...so we rode out to York this morning, and the better half says something about the RS smoking a bit - "you sure the plugs aren't fouled?"
.... now it won't even start & there's fuel leaking from the headers! Seems the injectors are stuck on all the time...
Anyway the bike is parked up in York, if anyone could lend me a hand (and/or a trailer!) tomorrow (SUnday Dec15) to drag it back to Perth it would be mightily appreciated!

Hello Mark & Dawn
I will be free early to mid afternoon, if you need a hand.

Big thanks to JonO for transport help, and a tip from Goldie, the bus is back on the road (so far...)
Pulling the airbbox apart & thoroughly cleaning the flow sensor connector pins (which
were a little grungy - I think that was the only connector on the bike I hadn't already cleaned at some point
) seems to have solved the flooding problem, and the idle mixture seems leaner as well - but final judgement withheld until I get a few more tanks of petrol through it. At least its made it to work a few times!
Now if I could do something about all the hot air coming off the fairing... oh... nevermind, its just Christmas-time in Perth

Memories.... wait until you burn your inner thighs... ah tank pads, they were a godsend. The heat management on the K's was never brilliant.
"YOU VILL COOK!", and they were right..
