Cant find it with search and I cant get it with google, but there's a company "somewhere in England" who repair seriously broken fairings as good as new. Even if their in pieces Shifty

Dream machine aren't cheap. Just have a ring around places in the phone book under 'Motorcycle Repairs & Service' and ask 'em if they do bodywork. If they don't, they probably know someone who does.

Have a clue pally, I'm looking for a specific one that I was after, assumed they'd be well known... they had pictures of the work they'd done and it was top notch Thumbs Up

Anyway, this is what needs sorting out:

No matter how often you crash you wont get a custom title if you keep dropping hints.

Keep it rubber side down and stop begging Korn for the aforementioned pointless selection of letters under your user name. Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes Wink

Id look on ebay for new fairings, but whatever way you look at it, its going to be expensive, crashing sucks.

It is usually cheaper to get a 2nd hand replacements but with the bike being so new this would be tricky. I'd guess a brand new top and side would cost £700 which versus £300, maybe £350 for repair is no contest.

PlasTec in Reading will get anything as good as new. They do the whole caboodle, plastic welding, colour matching etc etc.

They even hand painted my fairing where part of the decal was missing.

Mate, honestly, stop trashing your bike! It makes me feel sick knowing what a skull fucking that poor green machine is getting!

Fix it and keep it upright!
