Yes…..I was thinking of fitting the USD forks off the RS on to the A4, do you think that's a bad idea ?

Of course, you have to take the opinion of someone who has forgotten what forks are for with a pinch of salt...Yes…..
If you are on a low-fat diet, a fork is just the thing. Good thinking, ExiThey are for eating your millet - although a spoonmight be better...
So, I've had a reply today from Motogadget's help desk & after they have viewed the two short videos that I sent them showing the behaviour of the unit's LEDs when the fault occurs they have replicated the exact same results on a bench test. It happens if the battery voltage drops to too low a level, which is exactly whats happening on my bike when, (with everything connected normally) I hit the START button. Basically confirming the battery is duff.
So now I'm waiting for the supplier to get back to me with what they find after I'd returned my defective battery to them the other day.
Fingers crossed I get a new battery & that's the end of my woes & I can finally get the old nail running !!

Heard back from the battery people today & apparently the BMS had kicked in, which effectively puts the battery to sleep. They have reset it & currently have it on charge. Hopefully it will be back with me by Friday 
I'm guessing when I was spinning the engine over to pump a bit of oil round it before starting it, the battery voltage dropped to a level low enough for the BMS to kick in, to protect the battery from the voltage dropping too low. I believe they had to use another battery to "jump" it back into life & reset the BMS.
We'll see !!
