The wee lamp is just a pilot light. Easy to change, only takes 5 minutes Charlie  |

All the lamps can be changed without removing the fairing. The pilot light is reached by feeling under the bottom of the fairing, and prising out the rubber mount. the main headlamp can be a bit of a pain, but if you move the bars around you should get in OK from the top.Feel around for the spring clip, release(you WILL cut your fingers!) and the lamp pulls out. The rear brake light switch is located on the R/H side behind the heel protector, and is adjusted by means of the nylon nuts it is mounted with. HTH Charlie |

I thought this was a horticultural question. Grow your own Divvy in the garden from a bulb, now there's a thought. Snowdrop white? Crocus yellow? Tulip red? Bluebell ... er... blue?

Yes! A bit confusing! As I was told many years ago- Bulbs grow, Lamps glow! Charlie |

hey folks, right sorted rear brake switch, changed the bulbs but still having same fault so checked all wire connections got back to fuse box and i have found that the fuse is ok but the actual fuse box does not have a clip for the fuse to sit in, would this explain why the light on the clock does not come on when i put onto full beam? anyone know where i can get a new fuse box from?

Are you sure that's not the socket for a spare fuse ?
