Whoops!, need new parts now!

Post by Vfr400/tbird »

I was out on the nc21 friday night (no i wasnt drunk lol) and took a round about a bit quick, hit the kerb and slid the poor nc across the floor on its left side, it now needs a replacment gear change lever and front cowling/fairing!

If anyone knows where i can get such items it would be a great help, thanks! ;)

Oh dear.. gear change lever is one of the most elusive NC2x parts.. it took me a year to find one.

Did you just snap the end off?

When I dropped mine I drilled a hole in the remaining lever and put a bolt through it with a load of nuts on the end to act as a temporary lever (for a year) until i got another
