    thanks for the call Chris good to hear from you just a shame about the circumstances.

    Sorry i couldn't help with the Gilles but as said i do have a set of TRW that just need a footpeg.

    Hope you get it sorted soon mate

    Just called him and he had another make not Gilles :(

    I need to pull it all apart and see which bits are broken as the spares are bloody expensive on their own! Might be cheaper to buy another set and keep the L/H side for next time ;)

    Sorry to hear this mate. Like others have said, at least you're in one piece & the bike is fixable.

    Bad news mate. I came off on black ice when i was 17 outside a girls school ( showing off), so i always leave the bike at home when its icy. Glad to hear you're ok though, and the bike can be fixed.

    I have a full set of stockers mate if you need them. If not, i have the pegs etc if you just want them. just holla Zee.
    If its just a scrape on the mirror, then get carbon covers for it, they are cheaper than buying a new mirror from Honda (£200!!) I've also got a set of standard bar ends too.

    Sorry to here yur news Zee ... but I have a question ... you list the engine case in the damage ????

    Did you not have Gilles crash bungs fitted last time I saw you ... so they didn't save the case then ??

    Nope - didnt save the engine casing. In actual fact, there MAY be more damage i dont know about yet as they are MOUNTED to the engine casings so hopefully the pins havnt stressed anything. The have done a good (ish) job of saving the fairings as they would be a lot worse without them... but in my case, the fairings are not a concern as they are cheap shit ones!

    Drop Tom @ Biohazard an email with regards to the exhaust...........re-sleeve will be cheap enough or even just a replacement end can is still cheap.

    Whats happening with ur BST Chris? Have u still got them?
