Hello from a Newbie !!

Hey all been readin the site since i got my ske sport 6 months ago unfortunately i had the bad luck to come off the bike at an embarrassing 2mph.... front wheel slipped on what seemed to be banding on tarmac. scratched the nose cone and fairing bent the bar end broke the rear brake lever and front indicator and a tiny scuff on exhaust can... the exhaust doesnt bother me but the nose cone is the most annoying bit as it cost so much to buy new. the rest gets fixed on thursday and hoprfully there is no damage i missed and all is well. does anyone have ideas apart from ebay as to where a black nose cone can be picked up and i dont like the dunlop tyres as fitted as standard (most reviews i have read hate them too) any suggetstions as to what tyres i should replace them with.... i do town and country riding and upwards of 6 thousand miles i would imagine. your help would be fantstic and greatly appreciated

Aye i read Carol.. Woops haha

If it makes you feel better, I did the same. How'd you think I guessed it?

But I have a habit of reading things twice when I have a glass of wine in my hand.

is there many rideouts from liverpool or surrounding areas in here ?

Have had a look in relevant North West section, will keep my eye out.

Nah, there is no one in the Liverpool area you'd want to meet.

Get yourself over to the Border Patrol. They will take good care of you.
