Dropped the bike

At least your making good progress mate . Any word from CoxHonda ?

 

I have to give him chance, i would expect a reply tomorrow. Shops are closed for the night now.

 

Really bad luck mate. i know exactly how your feeling. i dropped mine over the weekend whilst taking it off the paddock stand. luckily as i was fitting a few mods i had a big foam mat laid down for me to lie on. My luck was certainly with me as the bike fell onto the mat and caused next to no damage. just a very light scratch on the mirror and a few scrapes on the dipstick screw top. weirdly this seemed to take the brunt of the fall

 

I hate that bowel-slackening moment when you feel it start to tip right rather than left

 

when i take mine of its stand i allways stand to the right of the bike, that way if it falls it falls towards me and i have some hope of catching it.

 

Gutted mate, try Tippetts Honda in London... Post up the quotes so I can check them for you mate..maybe able to find you cheaper.

 

cool mate, Will do.

Someone must have a brake lever on here lol.

With all these rearsets going on lol.

 

Wish I could help mate. Gutted for you. No doubt someone on here will have something stashed away, and you'll be up and running again soon as.

 

Bad news mate, hopefully someone will have some bits

 

All i need to ride the bike properly is a rear brake pedal.

The rest is cosmetic.

Im willing to pay for a lever. But for £35 i would expect one that isnt scraped to hell lol. Unlike the one on ebay.

 

Feck mate! Best of luck getting the part, wish i could help!

 

Really sorry to hear of your mishap bud, just to let you know Stu at Cox Honda is on holiday this week. Good luck with finding a brake lever, wish I could help.

Tough love Blue, we have all been there mate.

 

Ive fixed my brake pedal.

Removed it from the bike in my tea break at work. Got the oxy acetylene out and gave it a gentle warm up and tweaked it. Held it in a vice and tweaked it with a set of mole grips. Sorted!

 

I then sand blasted it and gave it a wire wheel so it looks brand spanking new.

 

Sorry to hear about this matey, hope you sort it out as cheaply as possible most of us have been there before so really feel for you

good luck

Well done Blue, glad u got it sorted and not for £35

 

Hate it when you drop a bike. It's a real sinking feeling. Any luck with the fairing repairs ?

 

Not yet, Got some plastex on order to do a temporary repair. Will see what price cox honda come back with for a new panel.
