What a difference a day makes. USB port fitted and working, tracker reconnected. Only the seat and one side panel off. Mind you, I was thinking about how to test each wire and diagnose yesterday's problems most of the night... Time for a BBQ and some cold beers :beer: 💨 Bloody Italian bikes. It'll ...
