Hi

I have some very minor damage to the fairing around one of the fixings, as per this pic. The bike is otherwise mint so I'd like to get it sorted, even though it really is very minor and doesn't look as bad in the flesh.

How do I go about getting this fixed?

Any advice appreciated, thanks.
Tom.

Your pic isn't showing Tom. I tend to load mine from Photobucket. Upload to your bucket, click IMG (the last of the four options), it'll say 'copied', then just paste it into your message.

Ed: Forget that, my lap top has just crashed into virtual memory hell. Can't see any pics...

Cant help on the damage. I'm better at causing it than repairing it.

Laughing Me too. Looks like a bullet hole. Is the fairing fibre glass or aftermarket plastic jobbie? If its plastic you can plastic weld it with a soldering iron & some placcy welding rods. Works quite well but looks awful unless you sand & paint it. Dunno about fibre glass reps though. Ebay?
