The Wunderlich one shown on Nippy Normans does not have the update that Oldtimers has done to allow easy relocation of the Sirius antenna.
Take a look at this [size=78%]

Why would anyone residing in the UK want to buy the one with the Sirius puck mount? We don't have Sirius here!
US residents can order the US version from Wunderlich as shown in the
installation guide.
Hope this helps our US cousins.

I've just fitted the oldtimers lock, works pretty well IMHO. However my fuel cap is not locking now - related perhaps? Or was it ever working..... seriously who checks that their fuel cap is locked? Oh well it'll give me something to do in the days / weeks ahead I guess.

Just fitted the One from Nippy Normans and my fuel cap is locking fine with key. No connection between fuel cap lock and central locking on my bike.

That's surprising, I haven't even got a keyhole in my fuel cap.

Ah there’s the answer yours has keyless so must be electronic controlled.

Yeah that would explain it, mentally I was thinking central locking = keyless, but of course it isn't

Please let me know how your investigation goes. Not satnav lock - related, but my fuel filler cap has stopped working with the central locking (I have keyless).

Of course Oldtimers are absolutely correct. My petrol cap is behaving exactly as it should - I should have rwd the manual. D'ohnot
