right hand fairing looks like someone took an angle grinder at it from top to bottom ..

about ten inches high and about eight inches wide its scuffed to fuck as If I wouldn't have noticed that when I got on .

there is a paint shop two units down who quoted £50 to get it sorted So The garage have agreed to go halves on the cost of fixing it though denying any responsibility for the damage .

They also spotted some tight links in the chain and when we went over it we found 12 links that were goosed so new chain and sprockets ordered for next week and new pads for the back to match the fronts.... Just sick to death of spending more and more money on this bike oh yes and the front tyre is wearing on the right side more than the left so had to order A NEW TYRE ASWELL

I just hope the vf1000 sells soon so i can trade this in for something else other wise I will have spent so much on it I may as well keep it and just modify it to suit with different bars springs and shock and stick givi luggage on the back

Fit your own pads? Not a tricky job. Should save something from doing what you can yourself
