As said get a list up, I've got quite a few bits that I've managed to pick at good prices and since the other bike can wait a while I could pass on what u need for what I paid, got forks, left fairing, screen, standard cans to get u going and sure there may be a few other bits :thumbup:

Main thing is ur just a bit banged up not badly hurt and being a young bugger you won't feel it for long, you'll soon have the beast back on the road :twisted:

I've got the complete front end I swapped off of my 53 plate at 14,000 miles including the later higher bars if you want them. Only the discs missing as I sold them to another member.
Also got levers, lenses etc :thumbup:

Shaun,
Its one of those things that happens, and on any other day it could be one of the rest of us, and I think we all know that and that is why everybody helps out............I did consider offering you a pillion all the way back to Coalville, but that may have been too much punishment for 1 day :lol:

To help get everyone started on the spare parts scavenge hunt the wanted list for Marmite will include:
LH footrest & gear lever
LH fairing panels
LH clipon
Forks
Lower yoke
Front fairing subframe
front mudgaurd
LH Mirror
LH indicators
Screen

Those were the bits that are wombles and needed to get the bike on the road, but there were other parts like the Cans, link pipes and clutch reservoir cover, tank etc that are all scratched and will also be needed for a full restore.

Sounds like the ideal time for a USD fork upgrade

However the list posted by AMQ is about right to get her roadworthy again apart from the screen, as i have an original one in the garage.

So if people would like to let me know prices etc. for the items they have spare I would be really grateful

Again I just want to thank you all :thumbup:

glad it's getting sorted. good to see everyone rallying around, comforting to know there's always help there.

could have been any one of us, except Bazza as he rides like an old man, but not like flatty, 'cos he's a mad old man :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

sounds like you can start a small production run on converted headers and link pipes and run up a bit of a profit [to cover the petrol, oil and knee slider debt] :D
