    Having a little difficulty locating the diagnostic plug, after reading countless threads everything is telling me to look under the battery on the ABS model, however on removal of the battery the only red (well more like orange) plug i can see is this.

    This plug was taped to the side, so i removed to tape to gain better access to it and found it does having a blanking cap fitted to it, which is also mentioned in other threads

    Now even i know that won't fit the end of the GIpro connector, so either that isn't the diagnostic port or something else is wrong.
    There is no other connector blocks i can easily see under the seat or battery.

    Any Suggestions welcome ?

    Cheers Si, i did get the cap off no problem, so if this is the diagnostic port that means i have been supplied the incorrect GIpro as the multi block connector is completely different

    Must be the photo Rob it looked clean under there, although looking at the photo it does show the back of the fuse box looking a bit dusty.

    Strange the cover was not on the diagnostic port, but all the underneath covers are in the correct place, only thing I can think of is I have no back mudguard fitted and it could be throwing some road dust up
