trying to order a part, have the code ready...so I phone up fowlups and get through to parts. yes, one in stock with suzuki so better order now. no I don't want it to be posted I want to come and collect...ok sir I'll put you through to the parts counter then.

rings to answerphone..."sorry we're closed. opening hours are 9-6, monday to friday"

it's 11am on a friday...so you're open then!

so can't order the part anyway. tried taylor racing in chippenham...press 2 for parts and it cuts me off

ok got pissed off so phoned back to pay the postage...and for some reason got it cheaper including postage than the 1st guy quoted excluding postage? very odd :P let's hope it's the right part now - 5-10 working days til I get it

tried them and they said that the part doesn't exist lol...

ahh well, just gotta wait 5-10 working days and then I'll find out if it's the right part (it's a complete fixing kit for the lower fairing by the way). bought the mounting bracket for the upper fairing on ebay last night for a bargain price of £1 (they are £187 to buy from suzuki) and hoping to at least start the fairing filler work this weekend...all systems are go hehe

yup, noone's got it :( certain bits of what I'm planning are going to be very difficult to find, but luckily this fixing kit (of which suzuki had 1 left) and the upper bracket are 2 of the hardest
