Heres my bike maybe a little late

Post by Petetheengineer »

Well i should have showed you guys my bike before i hit a van today.
He reversed out into the road and i had nowhere to go so i was sandwiched between him and an audi.
I wasnt hurt to bad just bruises and aching joints but the bike lost its right hand fairing and the fairing frame is all bent. There is also a problem with the front brakes they severly judder now so i guess bent disc.
heres a pic if it works

Im sure it will be written of and ill repair it but its a pain as i already have two crash damaged bikes in the garage that need fixing. (i bought them like that) I havnt had an accident for over 5 years now oh well start that counter again.

Although it's a 3en1 ihs a 3en2 (twin lights) or FZR600 (single light) top fairing.

UNfortunatly I don't think you can get the 1WG mid fairing bracket that mounts by the radiator. Although they be available as a FZR600 part.

hi thanks yes i did make a mess of the van. Sorry evilchichen not to sure if i understand it has the later model fairing fitted by the previous owner but it did look ok until the van incident.

I do happen to have all the spare parts to fix but cant until the insurance guy comes round.
Im just having to use the car until either this bike is fixed or my blade is fixed.

In your first pic you can see a fairing bracket from the radiator to whats left of the fairing lower ???
Those aren't available as a new FZR400 spare anymore, so just straighten it, don't be tempted to throw it away.
Should you need one though you might find one listed as an FZR600 spare under a different part number thoug because the 600 was an official import.

I needed to get some for the last project bike and they were hard to find.
