Hmmm??? I don`t know, I`ll have a look tomorrow. Looking at a picture the seller sent me, on the right hand switchgear there appears NOT to be a switch to turn on the lights (unless they`re on all the time...a US thing??)......I think there is on the XBR????? However, on the ignition there appears to be a "P" setting?? I don`t now  ::) I`ll try and get the new battery on it tomorrow and have a play?

When I go to CMSNL and look at the schematics, the XBR has a parking light, the GB hasn`t???? Weird???  ??? ???

Those switches are different to my XBR ones- I have a P position on the ignition switch so you can leave the sidelight on with the key out - but also on the handlebar switch.

Not a good picture

Your own fault for telling the missus it came with two keys!!....you should have squirreled one away! ;)

Never mind, it'll soon come.

in the meantime

Sit on a stool in front of the telly

Put on your helmet & gloves

& watch this!
