Hi I'm quite new to riding although i've been a pillion for 20 years or so. I've got a '95 TDR125 that needs a bit of work on but have been having a lot of fun on it. Any advice on best places to get fairings and spare parts etc greatly appreciated.

Hope to chat soon

Weeble :-)

Yes and yes :D

Who doesn't live in this neighbourhood and not visit Matlock Bath and MFN once in a while?

So whereabouts are you (and why sound so shocked??)

Mines been totally stripped - by me :blink:

However it's being rebored and rebuilt with a new piston etc by a fantastic fella and a good team of folk he knows :D

When I work out how to get photos on i'll put a few up. Apparently I made a good job of knackering it up.

I want to get some better fairing for it and respray (if it's not black) but I'm finding it really hard to get hold of any for the year of bike it is.

hopefully that's a pic of the damage i did <_<

I'm afraid it needs a bit more than a bit of fibreglass! I dropped it, stood still I was, what a numpty! Anyway the front cowling around the screen just shattered so I've ended up putting cardboard in place and covering with black tape - if I go fast enough you can't tell honest!!!
