Default Damaged Goods....Heartbroken Guy!

Hi All,
I'm new to the forum, but thought I would give it a try as a 'source of information'. I lost the front end of my CBR 600FS today when I hit i piece of wood on a roundabout and the bike slid down the road causing damage to the fairing and front guard. I was wondering if anyone had any advice where to get new fairings from? I have tried MotoCC but they don't seem to reply to my e mails?! Any help would be much appreciated.

Regards,
John

All new plastics are gonna be pretty darn expensive. I would keep an eye on e-bay for some... or even in a local classified.
Sorry to hear that, man.
But welcome to the CBRF!

New plastics, and even used ones in any kind of decent shape on Fleabay are way overpriced. Depending on your damage, you might consider attempting a repair of the plastics yourself. I found a thread last night with a LOT of helpful tips, and pictures of a fairly extensive plastic repair that turned out great! Just another option Best of luck

*Edit* I found this in a post by Kuroshio, and it links to another site...but it's a good write-up
