    Really sorry to hear that mate, I know what you mean about the empty space in the garage though!
    Once Arthur has put mine back to gether I will quickly put him in a box and post him up to you :D I'm sure he will sort it quick enough.
    Make sure you post him back when your done tho!

    Not good mate, hope he can sort it for you I doubt he can go too much more than an hour without a forum fix! He will get the shakes

    What about 2012? I believe they changed a lot from the previous models... Not just the fancy speedo...
