Couldn't Keep It Up!
« on: 07 February 2012, 04:20:40 pm »
After years of riding I've finally managed to drop my bike. Careless slow U-turn. The Ebarrassment!! Anyway fairing cracked near indicator. Seen a lot worse but still annoying. Anybody got any good ideas on a patch-up job? Cheers.

depends how neat u want the job to look?   if its mint ur after i would removeit and sand it back, plastic weld(or araldite)fill the gap left sand smooth,prime and respray.


time consuming but worth it id say.
