Hi,
Over the weekend I dropped the bike in slow motion, I put the side stand down and when getting off the bike it, the bike rolled fwd off the stand.
So while stepping off I had the unfortunate task of trying to stop the bike from dropping to the floor.
Ultimately the bike lay down on the engine bars and saved the front. but the rear left indicator touched down onto the kerb stone and punched through the undertray.
I gaffer taped it up and the other night had a go at using PVC pipe weld to fix the broken plastic.
It worked in some areas of the break but not all.
Has anyone attempted successfully to repair something like this. And how did you do it.
I have seen used undertrays going for £40 approx.
If I cannot repair how easy is it to replace it looks a complete strip down of the rear of the bike. Is it a 5spanner job.
What do you think repair or replace.
Has anyone attempted this replacement before and are there any pitfalls.
Help would be much appreciated.
