Oh well, found a few more bits damaged. Funny, there are scratches on the RH side fairing, so it would appear it's gone over on that side but very briefly. Nothing to report really. And dead luck the titanium pipe survived with very small scratches on the logo.
LH side I need a clutch lever and counterweight. LH fairing is broken around the centre bolt, but repairable and I have another scratched one to play with. Plastic is fine really. The centre bolt for the fairing (the one that goes into the top engine mount) got snapped off so it buggered the hole a bit and I've been drilling bits out. Should be OK as I've recovered most of it. If it isn't good enough I can helicoil.
LH mirror stuffed and RH one scratched a fair bit.
Stator cover badly scratched and cracked. LH rearset (onesecondfaster item) footrest buggered. Pillion footrest scratched a bit but Ok to go back on.
All up, nothing too serious, and I will now strip it to small bits and do a bit of a resto! Well at least a few bits and pieces of bling! New paint job etc.
Thanks for the offers of parts, appreciated.
When I've finished, I will have a few extras so will do the same and pass them on to someone who has a bit of bad luck.
Cheers
