thanks to all of you.
I took all connections a part and sprayed them with a spray that make water go away Very Happy after that I used electrician tape and silicon grease on all wirering that i could get to Very Happy
When I took the wirering of the fuse box there were water running out.
After that I putted a little additive "alcohol" in the gas. Then i took a cup of coffe and hoped.

The result was that it actually started and starts better now then ever Very Happy

Ps I checked the airfilter and there were now water and checked the tank Very Happy

Sounds like the it could have been an acumilation of all the block connectors. I don't like the adhesive electricians tape, it turns into a sticky horrible mess after a short while - us self amalgamating tape but make sure you don't get you fingers all over it or it won't work.

The fuse box is probably why the bike stopped, the water could have shorted to earth.

self amalgamating tape can be purchased from any good electrical supplier.

It is tape that "fuses" to it's self Wink

Hi

I finally got the bike a part. It is the fuse for "injection system protection" has anybody got an idea what to do. I Will of course install new fuse but what then?

Two things spring to mind.......
The first is...Don't use an Italian bike in the rain Laughing
Secondly...Use WATERPROOF fuse holders with a smear of petroleum jelly on the seals (Vaseline is for medical or sexual uses not Bimota uses EC Wink )

Vaseline is a petrolium jelly - not for sexual use.
You should use a waterbased lube .... Rolling Eyes

It reacts with latex so you'd keep it away from standard condoms.

Good choice, stay away from Vaseline(and evilchicken Laughing ).
Silicon grease is the correct "stuff" to use Wink
