Shopping list RE: my crash

[MiniMac]

Got some prices from Marriots dealer last night.

300 headlight assembly
197 for nose cone
40 for bits of plastic that cone bolts too.


Feck me,

As for the fairing I would get it off ebay and get it sprayed . It works out a lot cheaper .

Naked it, it'd be cheaper mate. Did you check forks are ok etc?

EDIT: Whats that parked next to it?
EDIT x2: just saw the post re forks, they just looked funny in one or two pics. The reason I ask about the bike next to it is, if its naked, steal the headlight mounting plates and whatever you can to fit the SV

Its my flatmates old GS500.

Thinking of getting the forks checked in Warrington. I'm going to try and ride it there, once I've straightened the frame / bars out the way. I'm going to be taking it easy, so shouldn't be too risky.... should it?

Thinking of getting some streetfighter headlights and indys from busters, like these:

Think I'll just have to grab a new tank from ebay and get it sprayed. Are the tanks the same across K2 - K8? Same for forks, are they the same? I'd imagine that the nose fairings and associated headlight mounts are different so I'd need a K3 specific one?

Well for probably the same price you could get Gixxer forks, but then your entering the modyfying the front wheel brakes etc area. Best idea is to get your forks checked first before you incorporate those costs. Can get some risers for bars and put some renthals on it. Should only be around ?50 for that, then again, are the clipons actually bent? They look twisted on the forks thats all.

Heh, that's my GS500 that's been stood for 11 months now, good ground anchor

Hehe, nah I'm going to try and get a replacement mounting area.

Just waiting on some pics of a petrol tank that I am possibly buying and a fairing nosecone.

Once this is all done, I might even get it sprayed black!

Well if you need some clipons, which I do doubt cos it looks like they have just been turned in by the impact, I will have some for sale to fit the SV when I've done my bar conversion. Mine are made to fit 41mm fork tops so should be fine.
