Well I washed and polished my Blade ready for tomorrow's Easter Egg Run, after spending a couple of hours of graft! I wheeled her back into the garage only to let her drop against the garage wall!! I now have a smashed nose cone, snapped mirror stalk & tail damage! Oh Yeah I know!!! Farkin twat!!!! But I did raise £241 for the Childrens Hospice tomorrow so I can redeem myself and it puts broken metal & plastic into perspective Ehmm I may need some advice on nose cone fitting guys in the very near future please
gutted for you Trev but all relative when you see some of those kids in hospital.....go for it mate and try Yorkshire goner for spares dude and we will scour the net to fix you up. index
Sorry to hear this mate, I'm always on eBay searching 1000rr parts so list what you need and I will keep an eye out for you
Yup cheesed for you man .Its always a close thing i dont consider myself a wimp but once the F**ker wants to go its over !two close shaves in two weeks i have had .Bikes are like wimin lose your grip and they do their own thing ! Aint that right Ash Dear?
Sorry about the mishap, hope it gets sorted asap. Congrats on raising the money for the childrens hospice, a very worthwhile thing for you to have done.
Cheers Dave!! I phone Honda just afterwards the quoted me £515 for the parts only If I had a Repsol I could have sourced parts no problems as that scheme has run for 4yrs but HRC has changed every year 09 different to 10 and 11 changed again so parts are like hen's teeth
Repsol Rob has a full fairing set for sale! but that's obviously a REPSOL! Mirror arms not a prob soon scource 1 of those what year was Jimbo Vills when he went into a field as he changed it into a track bike maybe he has nose or tail if same model/colour
Trev.... well done raising that cash,sorry to hear about the bike... Giv,Ive been doin my own thing for years....
sorry to hear that mate. hope you find the parts and get sorted quickly. i,ve been pretty lucky with dropping mine. only pride was hurt. well done on the fund raising though,sadly i cant make it tomorrow now so donations in by phone. hope there is a good turnout as expected to be baltic! i took ages to get warm after run today.
Cheers Alex, I'm sure the steam comin out of my ears cleared all snow within a 10 mile radius and the air was blue mate but wasn't with the cold! Still she's patched up and ready for tomorrow anyway at least the broken bit are shiny

Sorry about the damage buddy. So decent of you to raise the money for the childrens hospice, well done and be safe
Gutted for you. Dropped an old bike twice in the garage but was lucky and got away with scraped mirrors and pride. Hope karma helps you find a replacement part soon.
Sorry to hear this fella. It's a horrible moment when it happens. What fairings are you looking for? We'll all keep our eyes open.
hey trev, Sorry bout the lil miss hap but can happen to anyone mate, I am sure a lil tlc n some well sourced parts and she will be good as new! what was it honda were pricing? I thought the nose cone was around 200 quid mark from honda. what else was he selling for the higher price you got?
