    Wizards bike is recovered and sleeping safely in his lock-up. It doesn't
    look too damaged

    Using the patented Mavis Beacon "Hunt&Peck" Technique, geoff
    **** me! What's he going to have to do to get shot of it?

    Good news.

    Excellent news. Tell him if he needs a hand with any repairs to give
    me a shout or call someone who knows what they are doing :)

    It was too dark and pissing down with rain and so difficult to see any
    damage. The ignition switch doesn't work, so I presume that whoever
    nicked it just hotwired it and abandoned it.

    I think that it will probably need a new ign switch and a bit of wiring
    at most.

    Perhaps they couldn't get past the steering lock and rode it full circle.

    As long as it's not too damaged, good news.

    That's a result. Of sorts, I suppose.

    You're a good chap, Geoff. Similarly ;-)

    No it won't. it has different mountings and the X7 has 6 wires as
    opposed to the GS having 4.

    Any GS switch will do the job, they are all the same.
