Paddock Stand......... Going, Going, Fallen! - SV650.org

20-03-05, 08:55 PM

Bike in really good condition, nice candy red, but I needed to change the spark plugs, so spent an hour changing them and playing around with the side panels as the resprayer lost some bolts and the panels didnt fit properly. All put back together lookin like it should. Then going to wash it and put the bike back on the paddock stand, wasnt totally concentrating and the bike slipped off the standand narrowly missed the triumph tiger.

DAMAGE: Indicator through the right side panel and broken lever.

PARTS WANTED: Right hand side panel in Red in good condition, or different colour panels for the whole bike as was thinking about making the bike like those cars off the adverts looking like lego!!!! So if you have any panels for the bike spare that are in good condition, please post a message and I will pay good money for them!!!! (can't find any on EBAY)
