I droped my bike for the first time on the way home from work this morning! :( I had to brake hard! :x Thankfully very little damage :? .......
..... but I did manage to snap the gear leaver (not clutch leaver).

Two questions!
1, Does anyone know where I can get a new one?
2, Does anyone know how easy they are to fit?

Any info would be great cheers!

As for me I just dented my pride and confidence! :) :)

Sorry to hear that, and glad your okay.

Not sure where in your area, but they are simple common sense to fit as I recall.

should be easy to take off, then just drill through where it's snapped and put the old rubber over a bolt .

if you look at the line of SVs in Soho, about half have that fix, and a similar fix on the other side.

i just brought a new one, it was 38 quid, and really easy to fit, but i am mechanicly minded. if you are going to be upgrading the bike, take this oportunity to have an excuse to buy a nice set of rear sets!!! :P
get harris, or valtermoto, if you have the cash, then gilles sets are the best.
