Hate to rub more salt in your wounds, but here's a few pics for Northy to gorge over.http://server2.uploadit.org/files/jimmy4237-side2front.jpg

Matt needs the following:
Brake lever
RHS Mirror
LHS Gear Lever and mounting bracket
Complete front fairing and set of lights
New Screen
Complete set of front indicators

The left hand side front panel will fix as will the rear left panel, but the front centre panel and right front panel are history. The rear grab rail is also severly scratched. The tank on the lhs has been dented but is easy fixed.

If anyone's got spare parts left over ie. complete panels but needing work. PM Matt.

The list is smaller than I expected. Thanks for that Jimmy.

ps I still owe you for the brake bits, don't let me forget.

As just about every panel is now scratched or damaged in some way it's a prime time for changing the colour.

Any ideas welcome although my current favourite is the orange from the new Focus ST

Well, fair to say you've completely ****ed that up :) How long was that subframe on for? (presuming it'l have gone the way of the last one here, with that much damage) I've got some bits for you, will PM you. But, on the other hand, looks like you've dodged some bullets- forks and wheel look to be OK and the radiator's survived by some miracle. And, no lowers fitted! Perfect.

and Ford Focus Orange, ooh yes, lovely. But it'd be too much without some contrast I think. Definately too much with the lowers, if it's all one colours. Needs something to break it up I reckon. But that's a brilliant colour, bright without being too bright.

I like high contrasts... The silver frame and black engine absolutely cry out for dark coloured plastics IMO, either that or a very close match. Never really liked the lighter shades.

Matt,

Spoke to Big Al the day and found out he's got both front left and right upper fairing panels, along with a complete matching L&R rears. Al says they're in the stages of being ready for a coat of paint. He's also got some original front indicators too.
He's also got enough of your bike's Jaw Blue paint (He ordered it for you last year.... :roll: ) if you want to keep your current bike's colour.


I was looking for stuff in my workshop tonight and I found an unmarked rhs rear candy blue panel and a standard screen. Feel free to have either. They're only gathering dust :lol:

I'll keep looking for headlights and a set of repairable mirrors. A new set of aftermarket mirrors from Busters or wherever won't cost a lot.

Think that's just about a whole bike then...
