Thanks all. I’ll have to dig through the boxes of parts that came with this bike to see if the guard and harness clip are there. I’ll figure something out if not

Excellent, thanks. I probably haven’t noticed before because there’s normally a chain in front of it.

Never noticed this before but there’s an exposed thread with no nut on it behind the front sprocket. A quick google came up with a mixed bag of nuts and no nuts, should there be one on there?

Not the greatest picture but you get the idea...

Hello from Toowoomba, QLD

I'm interested to see how you get on if you decide to attempt a colour change. I've just bought an XS that has the same issue. I emailed MikesXS this week to see if they could offer any pointers re pulling the gauges apart but alas they could not.
