Don't worry about it, everyone crashes at some pont, took me 3 weeks on my first RS, and that was a complete write off. Smile

www.speedaway.co.uk are good for parts, rapid delivery but expect to pay through the teeth for bits, a LHS fairing for my bike cost £388 from them, but it came direct from the factory in under a week.

Watch ebay and keep your fingers crossed, that's your best bet.

It was for my old bike, i managed to get one side which was absolutely immaculate off ebay for £50.

Craig off 125ccsb has some fairings in by the looks of it he has a LHS in 1999 harada colours, they are brand new and at much more realistic prices.

Eye, distracted by a nice pair of tits I bet Laughing Bloody shame that you've crashed it as I think I remember from your previous post that you got the RS quite cheap and in mint condition. Aprilia are a rip off for their fairings though, glad I have'nt had the misfortune of crashing mine.

iv been waiting for a post from you saying "oh shit i come off" Learn from coming off. your lucky you walked away with your life!!

A lot of people think "narrrr i ant going to die coming off my bike" But trust me every time you get on that bike you put your life in your own hands.

The pain comes slowwwwwly but it will go away:-)

Oh scheiße. Its a right pain when you come off an expensive faired bike like the RS. I don't know how annoyed I would be if I binned my RG. Hope you get it looking nice again soon and take it easy. Keep your eyes open! Safe.

Really unlucky mate, gutted for ya. Was such a nice bike, but as said, everyone falls at some point or another. Its just how we get back up and learn from our mistakes. Shame about the bike too, was a right bobby dazzler! I come off my RS after about 5 weeks of owning the thing, but that was because of my own immaturity on country roads.

Glad you're not hurt though, and the bike isnt in too much of a state. Get her fixed up and enjoy it some more. Thumbs Up

Ride safe.

k mate, the panels are not cheap, the front nose cone is £360 from Aprilia whilst the main side fairings are around £350-£400 quid.

Even the stickers are not cheap, the main side panel stickers are around £120 and thats just for one side.

Best bet is to keep looking on Ebay, but it can be very hard to find them in new condtion, but they do come on from time to time.
