hadta fit my old oxford heated grips and repair a bodge so thought id widen the bars a tad whilst i was at it to seeme through until i decide whether to fit 758s or not.
bodge was a previous owner had snapped off the locating lug in the throttle, and used emery tape clamped in to stop it twisting, though this was moving. so first job was to drill out switch body, turn down a delrin plug, drill switch body, glue in plug, then drill out centre and insert other end of drill and cut off inside to make belt and braces repair.

fatbars removed from new ktm. 672 bend, pre filled at factory with anti vibe silicone. as new and straight....bar mounts..polished alu with stainless bespoke cap heads, designed to fit straight into existing bar mounts utilising oe bolts. bar ends are stainless expanding type (high quality, heavy, expensive) taken down on lathe to fit fatbar internal diameters.
look absolutely pukka fitted, but i prefer the less sporty position of the standard bars so stuck with them, albeit widened.
everything as good as new and ready to fit, ktm bars undrilled and uncut
£90 posted all in

[size=1em]Hi all,  I was a member of the old FOCU site but I just re registered at this new one (good job btw).[/size]

[size=1em]Anyway a few  weeks ago I went into the back of somebody at a junction at about 10 - 15 miles an hour. I only have third party, fire and theft  for money saving purposes (never again).  After I hit the car,the bike went down heavily to the right causing more damage. [/size]

[size=1em]I live in Bristol and I asked Bristol Kawasaki to give me a quote for parts which came to £1822, not including labour.  However, they just gave me a long list of expensive parts needed (see below).[/size]

[size=1em][/size]

[size=1em]I asked them if they knew a breakers that might be interested who offered between £200 - £250. The bike milage is around only around 18,000 miles. [/size]

I'm not mechanically minded and have no idea about ordering 2nd hand/aftermarket parts and fitting them. I'm hoping I won't need to replace all these things, and the ones that do can be sourced second hand.

[size=1em]I really don't want to lose this bike but I have no mechanic/biker mates to ask for help. I have a car to see me through the winter so am not in any urgent need to get it repaired.  Is there anyone out there willing to help me get this lovely bike back on the road at an affordable price?  [/size]

[size=1em]Thanks for reading.[/size]

Folks

as the title says, anybody got the standard rear mudguard assembly for a 57' plate FZ1-S they no longer want, needs to be in good condition.

cheers

Anyone know of a website that provides info and Customer reviews of Opthalmologists in defined areas?

Need to find a new one and haven't got a clue where to start looking.

Not interested in going to high street opticians as all that silly reading charts and trying different lenses for 10 seconds doesn't work.

Have sold my trusty Virago 250 which has been very good to me over the last six years. S reg gold Fazer getting delivered Thursday of this week, can't wait.

Been looking around but any new-to-Fazer tips (it will be doing south to north london and back each day, city based most of the time) which would help me avoid first day fails are most welcome.

I like my bikes and have been riding twenty years, not super mechanical though so don't worry about posting something basic if you think it might help, no offence to be taken here.

Cheers.
