At 15:54, Markus was at Bristol and 1 hour from Exeter.

He will be at Vertu BMW Motorrad Exeter on Friday (31st May) at 10am, probably leaving around 11am.

Hopefully, I'll be there too, look forward to seeing you all.

Is the ground/earth connection from the battery to the frame or engine. I've had read elsewhere that BMW may not use the the frame and the earth is connected to the engine.

Unless the trains aren't running, Markus will definitely be there.

There is a good chance that Markus & I will be meeting up at Vertu BMW Motorrad Exeter on Friday 31st May 2024 and having a ride out through Dartmoor.

As of today, my most recent Zumo 660 NT 2024.10 map update is 1 year old. When connecting the device to the PC, a message popped up on the device stating that the maps were over 1 year old and I should update/purchase new maps.

Is this the grub screw in question which needs to be loosened to adjust or remove the plunger.
Adjusting the plunger.

Is it the plunger adjuster or grub screw in the barrel which is rounded out.
If it's the grub screw, this might do the trick, https://a2stainless.co.uk/product/m4-x- ... in-914-a2/

Remove the clutch side, check the size and see if Stig Fasteners have one to fit, https://a2stainless.co.uk/page/1/?s=gru ... pe=product

I've read that they may by M4 x 8mm x 0.7mm pitch.
