AviP Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 While replacing the battery, I broke that annoying left side fairing (not main fairing) piece which houses the handgrip for putting the bike on the centerstand. What I broke is that little plastic piece that sticks into the rubber grommet on the bike. I thought I'd read that this was a common problem but am unable to locate the threads in a search. Any repair sugggestions will be welcome. Link to comment
Les is more Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 Take a look here We did this with Plastex Link to comment
DiggerJim Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 Plastex is the only way to go. I tried epoxy and that failed. I even lubed the post & rubber grommet it fits into but it still came off the next time I pulled the panel. Plastex makes it all nice. Jim Link to comment
ednap Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 Mine was broken by the service guys a while back. I have tried a few things to stick it back together but nothing has worked. However I have found with the two lugs at the bottom still OK and the twist lock at the top also OK the panel has remained secure despite the broken lug. Link to comment
