Well I busted my left radiator shroud and Kawasaki want a ridiculous amount of money for a new one.



Any way, a few rivets and some scrap aluminium.
Job done.

 

Did your bike take a nap again?

 

Yep, during the Capel 200.
Oh well, another battle scar.

 

Nice fix. When I busted my handguards, I used super Glue and then ran my soldering iron down the inside of the crack "fusing" the plastic back together. I love to solder plastic this way. It is almost invisible from the outside.

 

Nice fix. Looks a lot better then the lace jobs I have seen done with zip ties.

 

Wow! That takes me back to 1989. I had a Suzuki LT 250R Quadracer, and I let some girl that I didn't even know ride it, and she came back to the pit and the whole front end was hammered. I got it home and thought to my self. I wonder if I could use a solder gun to sort of weld it back together. It totally worked! It was after that moment that I decided to not let anyone near my toys ever again. I got no apology, no offer to pay, and I still see that girl to this day. She probably doesn't even know who I am.....which was the story of my whole life. But I got a hot wife now, so who is the loser now?.....ok I am but still.

 

Hey Neil, I like the hash marks for the litres of fuel Of course you guys know me, I would have had to bust out the Brother P-Touch and make some cool labels, and space them and make sure they were all square and level.......Please make it stop!

 

nice job! battle scars!

 

I did those when I first got the clarke tank and wanted to know just how much fuel it really held, and just how much was in reserve.
Just never rubbed em off.
