Need to repair after accident! WTB!
Hey guys need some help with parts:
Need a right crankcase cover, no scratches 11330-MBB-020
Fairing stay cowl 64501-MBB-000
Stay A, right cowl 64215-MBB-000
Stay B, right cowl 64217-MBB-000
Headlight 33120-MBB-003
Rear brake pedal 46500-MBB-000
No-cut frame sliders...but I can find them cheap
The fairings...I plan to get some new, unpainted ones and just have them painted to match. Found ones on fleabay for 170 each...custom paint looks great when bought, but SUCKS when you gotta fix something LOL
Also, if anyone knows quick fixes, cheats or more importantly, other bike parts that'll fit, let me know!
Thanks guys!!

Those plastics look very fixable. Little elbow grease, sanpaper, barely tell. Maybe some plastic bumper filler or plastic welding.
Is the headlight broken? Hard to tell in pic. The cage can be bent back in shape with long pipes (scaffolding stuff) and a little anger.

Oh man...I went that route with the bandit...LOADS of time spent only to have it fall over in the back of my step father's truck cause he didn't take my 4-point tie-down advice- back to square 1 LOL
But I may try to bend that stay...I do have a 3' stainless 2" ID breaker bar....hmmm...
And yeah, headlights busted from the inside oddly...I'll throw up a couple more pics today as I tear into it

Plastics are easily fixable, with basic techniques, time and patience.
www.vtr1000.org • View topic - Plastic repair & prep on fairings with pics
and search for Carbonadi clutch cover, which if you haven't holed your case will cover any scratches and give you extra protection.

I have bent back twisted rear subframes back in the day with the scaffolding pole method and the bike tie downed to a post. That took some determination, subframes are meant to hold rider, pass & gear. Cage should be ex.
Just ride to some back woods garage or crappy construction site & find some big poles layin around.

Oh so FYI ICYDK, ABS is a thermoplastic like polyproplene. If you heat it, it still maintains all its properties when melted and resolidified.
I made my plastic welder out of a real powerful soldering iron, and machined a "foot" with a hole for abs welding rod. You can get the rod real cheap at mcmaster-carr.com.
To repair cracks you can melt steel mesh into existing pieces to solidify it then fill in the gaps with molten abs.
I know I post these pics way to much but its amazing the results, and its all solid plastic! You can sand it like filler to shape then paint

Oh a clutch cover..how much you asking? Mine isn't terrible, just a nick in the corner so for the right price I'd get it. Frame sliders saved most of the damage
And I'm alright, just a dent in the shin
