Need to find the top fairing, including the sub-frame and screen. Also the clocks and front fender

Bought a bike with front end damage which is a repairable write-off. Need to get it fixed for the VIV inspection asap

Cheers
Jules

I might have a front guard for you. If you can measure the centres of the 2 front mounting holes I can compare it to mine.

Went to Vic wreckers yesterday. Don't have any of the parts I need.

Unfortunately not many people know how to keep the front end of their R1's intact it seems

Must be why its such a blast to ride. :D:D

Cheers for the offer OS

Wacky, don't be afraid to look outside VIC either. I got my whole front end from a wrecker in WA to NSW and they did me a great deal with freight etc.
Very comparible to local mob.

Having worked in a Yamaha Dealership I can readily assure you finding parts of R-soles which aren't completely torn apart to rebuild written-offers is like finding rocking horse droppings. They do exist on occasion, but they are few and far between. Don't be too afraid to price new ones they may be a lot more reasonable than you're imagining. It is normally the labour component of the quote which sees the bike written off not the cost of the parts...

Upper fairing

Mate I spoke to him he has the headlight unit no fairings but he does have rearsets and other stuff like the mirrors etc.

Keep calling him he'll answer. Or I can flick you his email address?

He'll get there. I know cause I bought his forks and triples off him complete with axle.

He also has an undertray if you need one. I wanted his subframe, ductail and undertray but he sold the other 2 so the undertray was useless to me.

Just managed to get a h'light and fairing stay bracket from Chase. They should be here b friday.

Also scored a dash and a screen from on ebay.

Cheers Steve.

All arrived in 1 piece 2day at work.

I was like a kid on Xmas.

All's left now is that front fender.

Don't know if the newer models will fit. The spacing between the 2 mounting holes on mine is 60mm.

Would be the same from 1998-2001. Not sure about 2002 onwards though. Anyone know???
