Looks like you have things in hand with the seller in SA Gavin but let us know if we can assist in any other way from this end.

I hear you Gavin!
Wiring an Italian is a challenge at the best of times. I have a Ducati 750 Paso sitting in the garage waiting for some TLC. The electrics on these were so diabolical that som ... |
