    Na, one is the 350degree gearbox potentiometer (in plastic bag), the other is the Acquisition system which provides Deutsch Autosport inputs for Front/Rear Suspension travel, Front/Rear Brake Pressure, Load Cell sensors for the auto blip and Oil Temp.

    I recognised the gear position fitting. I just assumed the rest was to attach it. Can't wait to see the logged data!

    Seems the shoulder injury is more complex than they first thought. At physio twice a week now, with exercises every day.
    Worst case is more surgery, best case is a few more months of physio.

    Keep up on the physio mate. once I got my arm out the sling, I started physio ASAP and it helped me a great deal.
    Fingers crossed for a speedy full recovery

    Thanks mate, you're bang on there. I'm amazed at the difference the physio has done already. I think it's the fact they didn't notice the bone and tendon damage for 5 weeks that has meant I'm a little behind with the shoulder recovery!

    That's bad news dude :( I've finally finished my physio appointments after ~4 months of it, but still gotta keep doing strength exercises but I've got the all clear to ride again. Shoulders are bastards!

    Have Bunnings called to ask for all their bolts back? Good to see you are mended Marty, that shoulder looked like a biatch.

    Congrats mate!! That's really great news. Was your's a displaced GT?
    Mine was undisplaced with tendon damage. No surgery but lots of physio for the tendon/muscle stuff.
    You're right man, shoulders are a bitch!!

    Looking good mate!! Too bad you don't like working on bikes... Anything else need doing?
    For me it's still a second place to riding but I do love a tinker!

    I like working on them in theory, I like knowing exactly how everything works and goes together and how to maintain everything... but in practice the second a single screw is hard to undo I just want to set fire to my house. Which is particularly unfortunate because I'm generally in turtle's shed

    I have braided lines, pads & rotors coming for the front at some stage which I'm sure I could use a hand with - I haven't bled brakes before. I can promise beer and company

    I'm certain I could get it done, but having never done it before it'd be excellent to have someone there to make sure I don't do anything that'll put me into the wall on T2

    I can vouch for the previous owner then being a muppet. It is the worst thing ever...

    Real men don't bitch out and get the pussy twin turbo 2.5L V6. They get the auto-only NA V8 so they can do a manual conversion to go with their supercharger. They then realise that motorbikes are a thing that exists, and forget they even own a soarer for a couple of years. Then they drive it, to commute, because they crashed all their bikes.

    That's what *real* men do

    I can see your problem right there. That is in fact the movement from a Franck Muller Aeternitas Mega 4, known as the most complicated wristwatch ever built.
    Take your Soarer in to See Nickolas Hacko at Culwulla Chambers in Castlereagh St in the city. He is a master watch repairer and watch designer who can probably sort your problem for you.

    your welcome.

    I love that the product page for this watch lists, as the very first feature, '36 complications'

    nonetheless this is exactly what the interior of an auto box looks like
