Well Jo if you are in Toowoomba what are you doing on Saturday. If you are free I'll shout you a beer and a koala pie.

A quick check tonight at dusk revealed a dud headlight so i guess i'll grab the lastest replacement in H4 technology.
I reason that a H4 L.E.D would only cause problems as witnessed on so many other bikes/brands so probably a blueish narva might be the go.

I got the bike serviced and roadworthied this morning then took it down to get registered.
All up for service, roadworthy and some other bits it was about $330.


I got back on the bike to leave the transport dept and the ABS lights started flashing.
This is no surprise. That's the way these things happen.
I am more concerned about trying to get a second key cut.
Obviously Neiman GKS keys are a rare thing around these parts.
I will head into town tomorrow and try some of the bigger locksmiths - it will give me a great excuse to put some miles on the old girl !

Do a search on the forum on keys.  There are common alternatives to the original blanks.  ILCO is one of the companies.
