Sorry to harp on but this is getting better and better. I just got back from Melbourne (Derbyshire, not Oz) where I collected my tail piece. Bloke had an offside fairing panel (bit scuffed, will polish out) against the side of his garage - said 'would you like this' - so I said 'how much do you want for it' - he said 'nothing, I'll be glad to get rid of it' - what an absolutely top bloke - so I got the fairing panel and the tail for £57 plus the diesel to get there and back.

Brilliant:cool :

Just goes to show not everyone is out to rip us off, nice result ED

My paint man lacquered my fairing lowers for nothing after I got some decals, after he'd painted them. Top bloke

Ed, you are obviously the sort of guy who could fall in a slurry pit and would come up smelling of roses.

Good to hear things are looking up for you and the trumpet.
Hope it's all sorted soon!
