Hi all,

I'm looking for a translator Laughing


After dropping the TDM I'm after a replacement fairing panel. TDM's aren't that popular in the UK, but the continentals love them. I figure I will have a better chance getting the part on ebay.fr ebay.it ebay.de etc.

What I'm after is for anyone with a european langauge to run a quick search for me on the foreign sites trying to find me a good condition LHS panel for a TDM 900.

Also if you could let me know what words I shoud be using to search i.e. fairing/panel etc. I'm not sure what the euros call fairings etc.

Cheers

Have you tried one of them online translator things. Get the word you want for something then stick it in the foreign eBay search.

Could be easier just to brouse the categories once you have found it.

I know about translation sites but what I was trying to get at is I don't think words like Panel or fairing translate into other langauges so well, in the same way french might use a word for fairing which translated means something like 'Cover'

Yeah, I know Sabot Moteur, means belly pan in french.

But the literal translation is engine shoe.

The Germans don't like using paypal. I got something on there a while back, ended up sending euros in cash as a cheque in euros would have cost a bit from the bank.

German's seem to love BACS transfers. TBH they are easier just not as easy to get your money back.
