Need 2013-2016 Nose Cowl frame (Stay).

[n2osx]

Hi guys and gals! I am looking for a couple parts for my brother's 2013 FJR. He dropped the bike and busted the Cowl "Stay" (pn- 1MC-28356-01-00) at the right mirror. Being a Cast piece, we don't want to try welding it. The plastic nose is cracked at the mirror. I can fix that if needed.

Hopefully somebody knows somebody with a parts bike

There's one at a salvage yard in Florida. I believe they have a number of the parts listed on ebay. Some of the parts were high, some were reasonable.

The cheapest I have found so far was at the parts place that I normally buy from. Partzilla.com. Everything that I found on ebay and Amazon was a bit more. Thank you for the heads up! I will look again just in case.

There has been a least one successful front stay welding repair...

Maybe others?? Unfortunately, you probably won't find an intact part from a wrecked bike. Lots of people have suffered breakage of his part and it is probably one of the first things to go in an accident serious enough to write off a bike.

I have welded up a couple successfully. It's not pot metal.

My 08 I got 9 yrs ago had a broken stay at the mirror when I bought it.

Used JB weld (Yea cheapo). Worked, still riding 60k miles later.

I broke the bikemdown to the stay and front frame. Made tightening the mirrorsnon a challenge, but held.

Mirror needed

I fabricated two pieces to repair my stay without disassembling the while front end. 4 years and 40,000 miles later still strong. Wete I going to do it again I would add the ON Weld to the solution as well.

When we had it apart the cast did look a little like pot metal at the mirror tab break. I am readily willing to admit that I could be wrong. Maybe I'll try to weld this one up. Thank you for the heads up guys. I looked at the linked post with the welded picture and definitely do able. The thing that sucks about my brother's is that it broke through the mirror mounting holes. I think that what I'll do is cut another piece of aluminum to weld on to make it double thickness. I have enough room to play with.
