The recession's hit hard.......

Maybe, just maybe we've been too harsh on this poor misfortunate, suppose this isn't his kitchen ! What if this is someone else's kitchen and he just sublets, this would explain the lack of beer cans and fag butts and it would also explain the boxes....the guy's gotta sleep somewhere ???

[Daithi]

i see a nail, .......................

I assumed that was a precision torx driver for the Zumo, if he's resorted to using a nail to take it apart maybe we're too late !

 

[john_aero]

Good job the sticky tape has 'sticky tape' written all over it or we wouldn't know what all the sticky tape was

Feckin work - the curse of the biking classes! (and Paddy's day-weekend-week) took its toll as well.

Looked in the kitchen last night to check they were still there - phew - they are...

Maybe this weekend

 

[RobertG]

Time to start - but this might take a while!

Before we get to open the box - a few bits to remove.


The rear rack needs to go...

Makes its backsite look quite neat!

Then the Vario mounts need to come off (all plastic - how are they so bloody strong on the bike - well done BMW engineers)

Then the.... whatdoyoucallitplasticthingysortofrearcover. It's cleaner than I thought it would be under there.

Now we have to remove Mark C's excellent number plate storage box (from the parish http://www.ukgser.com/forums/showthread.php?t=270790&highlight=plate+storage)

Great piece of kit - never let in a drop of moisture - not even damp!

Now we have a naked backside.

So its time to play with my wires and see what the box holds in store.

more later...

 

[RobertG]

...and the first item from the box is

Wasn't worth waiting for was it

Rear end off

New wiring added

Rear end back together... almost

That's it for today. Off for some now.

 

[Mr K]

Think you wasted your time there.
That box you have behind your reg plate sticks out as far as the bling.

...but there are bigger boxes to unpack. C'mon!

 

[Jockser]

What's that & where did ya get it ?
If ya say 'rear rack' & 'off t'internet' there'll be trouble
