Thank you so much, once again, for your ministrations to a stricken
Electra Glide.

A couple of follow-up observations:

a: following the reluctance to boot up[1] after its lie-down, I
decided to replace the fob battery ( a 2032, 1.5v thing), just in
case.
Top tip: fit it the right way up, or you may be sat in Sainsbury's
car park for ages with the alarm going off repeatedly.
Oddly, it works fine now. :-)

b: that tinny rattle, towards the rear? I think I've found the source.
Can you think of anywhere a bit of loosely attached thin metal might
be? Me either? I have some 1mm sheet, and am going to cut, and bend a
plate so it fits over the front. I shall attach it to the rear via
existing bolt holes, and at the front with stainless zip ties.

Painted black, and covered in mud, no-one will suspect a thing.

[1] The 'Glide was rolled onto its side, and rested on its crash bars
with some very helpful firewood supports, while Simon broke out a
variety of hammer sizes.
Plate did not appear to have been attached to the frame (at the front,
anyway) by welding. Tends to suggest its structural worth is minimal.
When I stood it back up, and turned on the ignition, all looked fine,
until I pressed the starter, whereupon all the lights went out, and
the LCD dash had a bit of a tizzie. Just before we broke out the
battery booster, I turned it off, selected neutral, and turned it on
again, and all was tickety-boo. Hooray.

Might be worth trying some black 'stixall'

I use this a fair amount, it is stocked at most toolstation shops for
not much more and no carriage if you can get to a local one.
