Dropped foxeye - with help from the wind? - Muddi Camel - 21-02-14
I think the wind helped my foxeye onto its side.
Certainly broke the brake lever, fairing's not happy, bar end, mirror, foot peg and can have all got damage. The peg even left a hole in the tarmac - I've not checked for further damage................ not really sure I want to.
J&S used to be the local yamaha agent (handy as they're really close). I imagine I could find the bits on fleabay unless you've got any suggestions for dealers of good used bits?
Thanks

Well sorry to hear about this...what a pisser!
My bike melted into the path last summer and the bike fell over...i was well gutted....i crashed it later in the summer but i was probably still more gutted about the stand incident.
You should post up in the wanted section...surprising what's lying around.....i've got a standard can in the shed i could sell but it's bulky so postage could be pricey...but go aftermarket & get something sweet maybe.
Actually i've got a black bar end weight somewhere too.worth checking your handlebars arent bent as they arent the strongest.
What exactly up with the fairing???.....side mounting to frame by fazer writing snapped off of frame?....or cracked fairing?

I've straightened the fairing brackets etc. so apart from the grazes and cracks, it's not about to fall off straight away.
There's now a nasty pattern brake lever for the front and I've tittivated the bar end so it doesn't looks so gruesome and likely to wear through bulky winter gloves...
I'll put up a wanted ad for the bent/broken bits in a mo. unless I find someone selling them.
Anyone remember the name of the company who used to break Fazers?
Thanks
