Need some help if at all possible guys. Laid the bike over yesterday... I guess I was in still in second gear and when I turned the wheels to go into the driveway... all I got was clatter and boom! So....Any help with the repairs of the road rash to the side cases and the engine cover. I know someones done the same thing... seems pretty common. Thanks.

Ok, everyone that has dumped their bike this week, raise your hand.

I'm glad I didn't ride yesterday. Seems like 3 posts of guys going over. YIKES!

If you need parts, Gary McCoy at University Motors can get what you need. I think he has the best Yammy prices going.

 
Should have bought a cruiser with running boards and engine guard. That way if you make such mistake it will just land on one of these and not tip over :D

yes ,,

Gary gives the best prices and shipping is very fast,,

yes, dropped on the side in the drive way,

and knocked over (hit n run)

 
THey may not be man enough to say it but I think MOST have dropped or tipped over at least once! AnywayI guess I'll try some regular rubbing compound on the cases. I'll probably have to bring that down with some scratch remover. Since the plastic is fairly hard it'll probably take a few times through the step until it comes out. I am not sure about the black part of the mirror but I can try the compound and see. I am not sure about the re-painting either so... I'll keep you guys posted.
