no, didnt nearly hit a child lol. Would have used back brake but didnt get chance as only touched, i mean touched front brake... I think i went over a small hole and touched the brake then, so for the half a second it was in the air it was locked and as soon as it hit the cold floor it didnt grip, just skidded. Anyone want to donate any parts needs new front and bikini fairing, also lights lol. actually just give me your bike without frame and engine i think that'll do. Thanks lol

it was only a front left hand side pannel, think it cost some thing like £140. i would have gone for a second hand one but just could find any, an the ones i did were like £40 less than brand new. it wasnt worth it, was quite scary tho when he said that there were only 2 at suzuki's main stock, last order they got was begin of last year pose they would have cut down on curvey part cos of the pointy.

i can ask how much for a new hedlight when im down there later if you want? ? give you an idea on prices, some times the price you pay for good second hand isnt far off new.

Headlights from Suzuki are crazy expensive i think.

Best to get one 'cheap' on ebay.
