    Ive heard theres a breakers in Wotton Bassett, but apart from having a business card with a name (Gary Crook - Hmm! :) and a number (07916 149507) I have no further details on them. It might be worth a shot or ofcourse theres Flee-bay!!

    Checked on Fleabay straight away last night - there was someone breaking one a few weeks ago - but theres nothing at the moment.

    Thanks for the phone number - I'll give him a ring during the week!

    Glad you're ok Ice, one to chalk up to experience eh! Repeat after me, 'don't brake on gravel' 100 times!

    I see you're only in Chippenham so if you're struggling with anything on the bike, don't hesitate to get in touch and ask for help.
    I broke a finger once, so I feel your pain babes, I bet you're right handed too!

    Thank you so much!

    So far it looks like all I need is a front left hand indicator. Tank has an indicator dent in - which would be nice to replace - but probably expensive - and the badge on the left side needs replacing, and also if the front mudguard is scuffed.

    I'll check it over later to make sure theres nothing else.

    My new lids all scratched too :'( Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

    really didn't wanna be reading a thread like this on a sunny sunday morning! luckily there's not too much damage done to you or the bike though. which pub was it? can't believe that a pub can be so full of arrogant t**ts that not one would come and help

    Hope you heal quick Ice...Dunno bout you but when I had my 1st off I was so embarrased even though it wasn't my fault just wanted to get up and away from the onlookers but some silly plonker had called the ambulance which was about 200 yards away it came flying out of the station siren going and flashing lights ...all I had was a grazed arm...but 2 weeks down the line I started to get pains in my neck and shoulders turns out I did a bit more damage then what I thought ..attending physio now so if you start getting any discomfort get it checked out I also landed on my left side

    Take care

    Bridget
