picked up a used gauge cluster for $275 on egay... hopefully i'll be able to recoup some costs from mine because it isn't THAT bad. shit this stuff is expensive... still need a front fairing stay, upper left and right fairings, and repair some tabs on my headlight and she's back to 100%...

how do you repair tabs - my headlight has a bunch of broken tabs - I would love to fix them and put it on ebay
- Mike - 11-20-2006
glue.
- .paul - 11-20-2006
heh, and if you do not have the other sides of the tabs?

i'd figure out a way to mount some washers up. glue may work for that as well since it isn't like the headlight is pulled in any diferction... ya know?

woot! got a fairing stay on ebay!
need to: repair gauges, repair headlight (would rather just replace both and sell the broken ones), get headlight surround plastic, get both front upper cowls...
GETTING CLOSE, bitches!

oh yeah, bike will be 100% ridable once i have this piece... i'll be without upper fairings, but i'll have a headlight and gauges mounted. yay!
- .paul - 01-12-2007

Fairing stay came in (decided to not get the upper, it had a broken tab)... Put it on, wired everything up, and aside from a blown fuse it looks like electronics are all good (assuming I repair or replace cluster).
Missing upper fairings, windscreen, headlight surround, and mirrors. Otherwise, she's ridable
- Mike - 01-18-2007
oh yeah, definitely new tires before i take it out further than down the street.
then? maybe sale. get something more maneuverable, cheaper to repair. having something rare is fun and all... until it breaks.
- Mike - 03-04-2007
took it out for a spin around the block friday and yesterday... weeee! i'm pretty certain i'll have to get something once i sell it.
