    Hi all,

    I have some very minor surface scratches to one of my fairing panels (due to the compulsory newbie-rider-at-a-stand-still-drop)

    Rather than buy a brand new panel does anyone locally who can sort this for me?

    Thanks!

    Dont know if he is still there, but there was AutoColour in Lydiard just out side Swindon and he is very good with a spray gun, as you should see the job he has done on his own bike.

    Believe me - that's not just a newbie trick! If we are honest, most of us have done it long after passing our test! I'm not ashamed to admit to doing it :

    Sorry, I don't know anyone up your way...or down this way come to that! I've mostly managed to throw myself under the bike and so reduce damage!

    We could learn a lot from crayons; some are sharp, some are pretty, some are dull, while others bright, some have weird names, but they all have learned to live together in the same box.”

    I might just have the thing for you. I've got some aircraft canopy / plastic polish (from work :-X ) that could get some of those scratches out. I've tried it before on a friends bike and it worked a treat...

    Don't bother doing anything till you want too sell it.

    Live with it for now.
