    Parked on cobbles today... Got one step away from the bike and down it went like a sack of shite

    Raging doesn't even cover it

    Fell on a high edged kerb... Broken front cowl, headlight and scratched alternator cover and bar end

    That's before I even start to strip it and look underneath
    Which I can't even start for 2 weeks as I'm away in the morning at 5am!

    Found a carbon front cowl which should look Ok on the black blade

    What's the thoughts on angel eyes, projectors and HIDs?

    That hurts, shipmate. Dave V has fancy lights. Might be worth asking him.

    Dave v has hids, awesome but need original lights as they are a bulb upgrade. As are angel eyes, which look great but work out about 700 for the conversion I believe.

    Cheapest option will be oe replacement mate. Hids won't mend your broken headlight casing unfortunately :(

    Bad luck dropping the bike dude. I hate cobbles wether I'm parking on them or riding over them.
    Hope you get sorted as soon as possible.
