Hey,

I sort of feel responsible for the latest exchange of snappy repartee regarding ISV control units....I am planning on attacking the 90 cabriolet this weekend and seeing if the ISV control unit from the cabrio fits AND works in my 87 Westy.....so maybe we won't need to see photos..and this interesting string can be put to rest.
