I did a low-speed, parking lot dump of my '98 CBR900RR, and while I wasn't moving very fast, I dropped the bike hard enough to snap off the left handlebar right at the column,and messed up a number of fairing pieces. (It was first thing in the morning and my tires were a little cold and the asphalt hadn't warmed up very much yet, and I gave it just a *little* too much throttle turning right as I came out of the parking lot. The back end suddenly broke loose, and I ended up being very surprised and highsiding it at about 5mph. This is where I was reminded that Conservation of Angular Momentum is NOT your friend in these situations.)

Anyway,I contacted BikeBandit to order a new OEM handlebar and some other parts (like fairing lowers,etc. and the order went through just fine in mid March, but I still haven't received the parts yet -- COVID has screwed up the shipping timeline so badly that they have no idea when (if ever) I'll actually get the parts because they don't know when *they'll* get the parts.


So my question for you here is: Does anybody here know where I can still get OEM parts for my bike in a timely manner?

Thanks!

 

@mwk900rr Sorry to hear about the high-side. Remember Ebay is your friend. I think I'd jump on this one.
