Anyone know where I can get some cheap parts for my VFR since it decided to go down the road on Friday night?
If I find the van driver I will rip his F@?@ing head off...

Right fairing, footpeg, brake lever, right mirror. Not checked under the fiarings yet for any damage...
Worst bit was having to ride the 40 odd miles home while holding my right leg in the air...

You have my sympathies Wayne, hope you get the bits and get it sorted soon ... eBay was where I got a new tank for the TRX when someone did the same to me last August.
Any help from the police? Mind you they weren't any help to me so don't hold your breath.
