Sorry to hear about the off mate, as has been said you and your missus are ok and thats the main thing.
I saw a red nose cone on ebay a couple of days ago, didnt see how much tho.
Hope this helps mate.

the bad news is bad but the good news is better :?

You seem to have taken a liking to the tarmac ... not a good habit to have but it does happen to the best of us from time to time

And you're one of the lucky bastids who can reach the floor too :roll)

Glad to hear your both OK numb nuts, but if you really did want a Silver

there's easier ways of preparing the plastics for a respray

Like BA says, you are becoming a bit of a Tarmac Tart aren't you :banghead)

Anyway, hope you get yourselves and the

fixed up pretty soon and may I suggest you wait until conditions are more favourable before you go out on it again :roll)

Stay safe folks

Bummer Dave :bigcry:

........again :wink)

. Main thing is you're both alright, hope it doesn't put Fi off pillion. I'll keep me eyes open for bits, don't forget Pete at Blackbird spares might have what you want.

by **Shuggie** » Sun Jan 25, 2004 9:25 pm

For fooks sake Numbie, have you upset someone on high. :banghead)

I'm glad you're both ok mate and If you need a spare jacket I've one here but you'll obviously have to let it out a bit :wink)

If you need a help with anything give me a call :-)

I am really glad the pair of you are ok. Sorry to hear about your bike.

This is a lesson to us all riding at this time of the year. On Friday I took my bike out and stopping at a roundabout I put my foot down - the junction surface was so slippy my foot moved, I thought I was going to drop my bike - thank F*&! I didn't.

by **ksoar** » Sun Jan 25, 2004 9:46 pm

Main thing, as others have said, is that you're ok.

Look for spares on ebay - as long as you're careful, should be nothing to worry about buying from there.

Also, don't write off the panels - they can be repaired. If you're in the Reading area, I can *highly* recommend:

Plastec
Burghfield Bridge Ind Est Green Lane Burghfield
Reading Berkshire RG30 3XN
0118 957 4577

They can take a while as they'r every busy, but they did an amazing fix on my ZX6R panel after a track day crash. The crash mushroom actually cracked a nice 6" round hole in the panel, which they fixed up, and resprayed etc like new all for Â£80 (versus Â£320 for a new panel).

The XX will live to ride anouther day,regardless of it's colour

Sorry to hear about the tumble NB, glad your both OK.
Got a spare panel and mudguard that may be of use.

by **Rolfy Dave** » Tue Jan 27, 2004 10:31 pm

Just glad to hear that you & Fiona are OK...

As the others have said...Bikes can be fixed-but people take a lot more work" !!!

Take care mate, and if I hear of any of the spares which you asked about I will mail you..

Best wishes to you all,

Rolfy & Jan
