knee down = right fairing

rsvnelly · Apr 24, 2008

Had a good ride out last night around Thirsk and Northalerton (Yorkshire), got me knee down round a couple of roundabouts, then had a get off :jack, I think I took it a bit to wide and hit some gravel round the outside, front end tucked and off it went

. I'm on the look out for a right side pannel in the matt black finish if anyone can help?? I've been really lucky as the damage is really minimal just brake lever, bent brake pedal and the fairing, I think it's because I didnt let go of her lol.
So if anyone has a fairing pannel to match please can you let me know :thumbup.

BTW i was told that its the same brake lever for aprilia and ducati, but ducati are cheaper. Just a passing thought.

Sounds like it wasnt to bad, and you got away unhurt too, which is always good.

I'm hopefuly getting a set of ASV levers in gold and black, but don't know if I have to buy fittings as well or if they will just fit straight onto the ones already fitted:dunno

You can get away with a pattern lever for about a tenner but a word of warning, retain the original lever carrier (the bit the bolt goes through) and fit the pattern lever to it.

I fitted the whole pattern assembly as it looked identical but it caused my brakes lock solid a mile or so up the road. Cant explain it cos they look identical, measuring it may have revealed a little more but I just fitted the pattern lever to the original carrier. had no problems since........

Ditto here..Fitted a pattern brake lever after dropping bike in a 120 mph bend..(Oh ok, dropped it in the garage after trying to put it on a paddock stand) Cost £8 on ebay,,Can't tell the difference between the one I bought and genuine.
