Would be easy enough but in my mind if I'm buying it new I shouldn't have to mess around with it like that?

Sure about that? I thought that these bikes would be earthed exclusively through the loom. Something to do with dissimilar metals. I don't own one yet - off to Adelaide on 2/1 with a wad of cash and it would be handy to know.

Another thing, anyone know what size fuse I need for the indicators, I know it's 15Amp but how big is it in mm.
Before anyone say's it, yes I managed to blow the fuse

It's a spade fuse. They only come in two sizes. Big and small. mm wise I don't know, but it is the smaller size of the two.
