Waterproofing Bosch System

I lived really near Condom for a few years. It was a real pain driving there because you would have cars stopped in the middle of the road so that American tourists could get their selfie next to the sign...

Same here for Bedlam and Dyke Bottoms!

There is a small village in Bavaria (?) I've driven through that has the charming name of "****". I don't understand why we don't hear more about that one

Look it up on google maps. Just make sure you erase your search history afterwards .....

How unfortunate for the villagers or as they would be know as a W****er.

Have to admit to having a smi!e or two on readiing this thread!

But as the new owner of an intuvia console i am trying to find out if it is ok in wet weather, to which i fully expect the answer to be yes. The bosch manual makes no stateme t one way or a other.

Today i have been riding in wet weather with no issues, and i do not expect to resort to any bodge likeclingfilm, condoms or baggiex!

More dubious, to me, is whether removing the console represents any hazard out in tne rain? I have dkne so today and all was well, but it made me wonder.

Any thoughts anyone?

I am amazed bosch dont cover this in the manual

Yes carry on and don’t worry about it

As for taking it off apart from the bike not powering up it will be fine
If anything put a little silicone grease on the contacts and while your there pull the motor plugs and do them as well and finally finish off with some on the battery terminals and that will help protect the electrical contact side of things
