bladerunner 0 Posted July 27, 2013 well, todays update, riding along the A46 in Lincolnshire and something hit me on the arm so I pulled over and found the little air deflector that pops out of the chinpiece of my lid missing and the trim hanging off. went back to look for it but not a chance, bugger.... then had a bee hit me in the throat at about 85 mph, that gave me a shock. finally got home and decided to fit the new top fairing, took R&G bungs off to take side panel off and the left bolt felt really tight as I undid it, looked down the hole and its stripped the thread in the frame. marvellous. went out and got a piece of 12mm treaded rod and some nyloc nuts to get me by till I can sort it properly and ordered an M12 helicoil kit off ebay, good job I'm an engineer and do this kind of stuff all the time.
