Hey Dave ... welcome to the board! Man are you in luck. We have a huge 1000F contingent here at CBRF. And at least a couple are from Oz. They'll be around shortly to greet you ... just try not to make any sudden movements as they sniff around at first

Welcome
Giday Dave and welcome to the CBRF .
Another Aussie and another 1000F owner .... you are a winner !!!....that's the daily double mate
Every 1000F owner has to post up pics .. well actually we try to get pics outta everyone ...
What part of the country are you from ?
As far as the instrument panel missing stopping them from running goes ..I have never tried that , so I am not sure mate..
It is quite possible that critical wiring does get disconnected ..? and may need tweaking to work..
Post that issue on the 1000F board to get a few more of the guys in on it ..
catchyu round ...
BTW : Need any help around here just PM me :-)
Some fast find links are below mate ....use them with my compliments ..
