A mate of mine who used to work at Gt as a mechanic is going to come over and have a look at the bike today or tomorrow and tell me what needs doing and about the plastics. Found out this morning that the actual bracket that holds the plastic is [Censored] beyond repair aswell.

unlucky, as long as your alirght then you can repair everything. Might be for the best in the long run, it's so icy at the moment i'm starting to hitch instead. What model bandit have you got?

Its the 2003 S model. Not having much fun finding the fairing bits so will have to get a new one. Looking to get an ART can or a Barracuda both seem fairly cheap.

As i turned right, i hit some oil as i opened the throttle and said goodbye to the bike. Ask Mike or Tom what happened, they saw more of it then me lol. My neck is killing me, got a couple of cuts. Usual sort of stuff. i remember landing on the right handside of the road looking at a red car coming down the road thinking, He aint gonna stop.

Considered that but it'd be cheaper to return the bike to how it looked. Simown might be down there tonight, depends if i can get the keys to dads VN again.
