Why don't you get a quote from a Moto Guzzi dealer or an Aprilia dealer (if they have the MG software)?
The work that you are talking about does not take long to do, so see what their minimum charge is.
What way is the Garmin wired in? As wiring has been added by someone, the obvious question is, could there be a stray piece of wire or a bare or loose connection causing a short?
I'd need to look to see what that fuse is for. What circuit does it protect, have you checked?
Hi Bruce
I would LOVE to see/be in Newfoundland and the surrounding area, for a while anyway. Cape Cod / Henry Beston's outermost house etc too (though I've seen on the web that storms devastated the original cabin).
There are, of course, ancient sea-faring links between here and there.

Yeh, I did all of that too.
The fuel lines were not only creased, but were splitting. I've posted the pics on here before.
Damage was all thanks to the service agent.
Oh yeah: and the red fuel pump elbow broke too. Junkus horibilus.
It's a hateful, hateful thing.
Depressurising the fuel line first, has been recommended. I guess that means disconnecting the ignition leads at whichever end is easiest and hitting the start button.
I do know what you're saying, but....
Aprilia and MG are not one brand (Piaggio) with different model names. It's not a case of the same management, marketing, support, etc being applied to both equally (as far as I can see) or it's not a case of, if one succeeds, both succeed and if one fails...
