Another "Ive had an off" thread!! :-(

Btw, I wouldn't bother replacing the whole gear change assembly - www.fixer-peg.co.uk can do you a new toe-peg for about 6 quid. I fitted one to my broken brake pedal and it looks as good as factory.

Sorry for your trouble, and + 1 to fixer-peg. Good stuff. Get an emergency one while you're at it.

Cheers for all the replies guys & gals

Especially Lozzo for the PM an fixer peg thingy!! much appreciated!

Welsh Wizard - i know it is gutting, especially as we were talking about all the offs posted on here all the time! Just be afraid if u see me near your bike with a toolbox as a certain left side lower might go missing!

Oopsy.

OK cant see if anybody has answered you Q's

You have to buy lowers as a pair. You could always ebay the half you dont need or keep it for a spare !!

Paint Code - should be on the pink sticker on the front inside cover of your service manual.

I've got a fixer peg, havent had to use it, but seems much better than your other option of drilling the peg and putting a bolt in it. Seems a tidy piece of kit.

HTH

The fixer peg looks better than stock!

Ollie, echoing the other advice, it might be cheaper to buy a set of lowers from Suzy rather than hunt for a 2nd hand one and get it sprayed up as a good job might be pretty expensive. I would both the set and then sell your decent one (and scuffed up but cleaned up) one on the 'bay, that way you offset some of the cost. There will always be some poor soul looking for a right panel and possibly may want to repair your left side one too.

Out of interest, did u keep this as a permanent option or as a temp measure as said on the website?

The 'get you home peg' is a different product, the one I bought is what they call a replacement toe-peg, there's a link further down the main page to them. I will be using this one as a permanent thing because I'm too pikey to buy a new brake pedal at 47 quid when I can spend 6 quid and have a better looking brake pedal and a chunky key-ring pendant for my car key

Big hugs to you .... glad to hear you are not badly hurt !!! My bike looked like yours after my off, I fixed it back up with ebay bits and it didnt cost much, just the lower fairing which I didnt bother to replace.

Get yourself checked out tho just to be on safe side hun xxxx

sorry to hear about your off matey could have been worse tho, the exhaust side is alot more expensive ain't it shellywoozle anyhow its done now, wash off the mud and survey the damage, bikes fix easy but we take alot longer! glad your ok.
