Sorry to hear that mate. If the lever is busted, it's game over until you can put another on.

Glad you're OK. Look on the bright side, it's a good excuse to upgrade mirrors and indicators.

Ah bad luck mate, assuming you have an SV I was looking at how well R@G bungs would protect my fairings by lining up a board from my tyre edges to my bike bodywork. Think the fairings wouldn't, well fair too well.

Sorry to hear that, was it actually a bloke running that ran into you?
I've got a half-faired pointy with R&G bungs, it fell off the side stand last year. The bungs stopped the fairings, bar ends etc hitting the deck, but the toe peg broke off the gear lever, which made the rest of the ride interesting ![]() |

Aye, the bungs are good if you're half faired, but less useful if you have the full fairing.
