any suggestions please?

Hi,

A contact number for Paul from Redback racepaints would help.

Cheers,

Bill

Hi Bill,

I don't know the number as I just copied from another thread.

The original poster Monyx is from the ACT so presumably Redback is from there as well. If Resident e is interested in following this up he could PM Monyx for the number. Redback may then be able to recommmend someone in NSW (where Resident e lives).

regards

Steven

for those interested, i just went throw insurens. manly becuase it was just easier, drop the bike off and they fix it. well the bloke fixing it rang me, yes work was approved and if the parts are in the country shouldnt take any long than 5-6 weeks( i thorught shit, cars dont take that long) but anyway i asked how much? just over $4k in parts!!! f*** me!!!

yeah not surprised - had to get a LH fairing for me copper about a grand so time ago. Had the bike since 99 and it has never fallen off the stand and i have never done the mod - maybe i will do it now - better late than never they say. baz

Mate - You did the right thing using the insurance, otherwise whats the use in paying for it and you'll forget the pain when you get her back all new i always make sure it's in gear after i turn the engine off. Haven't had one fall yet

in gear works for me!!! and careful where it's parked...watch the grade of the road ETC......sorry to hear about the new ride especially a white one OUCH!

Ive done the stand mod and always park in gear - doesn't everyone? I turn the engine off by putting down the stand so always in gear.

The only other checking I do is if the bike is facing down hill a little I make sure the slack is taken out of the gears so it wont have nay chance of rolling forward.

my 2000 model done the same thing 2 months back - in my garage --- I have oggy nobs on the bike and it saved the bike - just got one tiny scratch on the bike in a place you really have to look hard to find .... this should be your next purchase .....

funny you say about the oggy knobs, i had planed to pick some up the next weekend just in case i did drop it. well instead i forked out $500 for the exsecs instead.
Got another call today from the bloke fixing it, and yes there will be awiat for some parts which will take atleast 4week to get in. im getting withdrawels everytime these a nice day, its just killing me. cuz i know when i get the bike back the weather will turn shit.

Why not take the fairings off and ride her naked while you wait? I've done that in the past while getting a panel plastic welded? They look a bit funny, but the engine sounds GREAT!

Residente,

Install the Oggis anyway. dropping it once doesn't garantee tht you wont do it again.
