Default Free to a good home.

Just been to the dealers where my wrecked bike's been sitting, to
rescue a couple of bits and bobs before the insco takes possession,
and have therefore a few items surplus to requirements:

Specifically, I have a black baglux tank cover for a gsxr1000 k3/4,
together with expandable bag to fit it. There's also (in my garage the
whole time) the original pillion seat, the plastic hump having been
smashed in the prang. Oh, and I also liberated the toolkit, if
anyone's in dire need of a full OE item, although I think I'll find a
use for most of its contents. And the owners manual, although it's
been wet so may not be usable.

So if anyone wants it, I can send it for postage charges or, if you're
not in a hurry, possibly the u/g railway, but that's depenant on Adie
coming over and being prepared to carry it back.

I've no use for the cover, but could definitely put the bag to some use,
as I was planning to buy one.

If it's just the clasp that's broken, you should be able to get a
replacement. You'll certainly be able to get one from Bagster, if you
can't find one anywhere else.

They sold me a separate piece for mine, the part that attached the two
clasps to the bag.

Bagster have been very good about such things in the past.

But this is the little spring-loaded pressy thing on the bag that
slides into the rear-most attachments on the cover. I don't see how
it could be replaced, as it seems to be part of the bag?

I'm not sure I see where the problem is.

These bits?
http://homepages.gotadsl.co.uk/~degu...f_dcp_0587.jpg

Where exactly is it broken? The metal bit should be easily replaceable,
if you can get a new one. It'll just crimp on to the flap of material.

Anyone expecting Adie to carry it should understand that the tankbag
will be 'lost in transit'. The rest would probably make the journey
safely.

Heh. Well, I can't much argue with that, can I?

Be a shame if there's no-one actually needs the tank cover too...

Being a one-time car-trimmer I have the special tool to fit those[1] -
done them in the past too.

You know, you can really surprise people, sometimes.

Do so. Not sure how much they'll charge you for it, mind; but it's a
reasonably generic item, so hopefully they won't rip you off too much.

Send me some details, condition, mileage price etc, but ideally i'd be
looking to chop the 12R in against something else, I can't countenance
another bike on the books.

Oh, i'm looking to out the trans-european CCM too as I need to
downsize back in to the available space.

I realise that suggesting this puts me in real physical danger but why
not leave the handbag at home and use the tankbag as a holiday handbag.
Enough room in it to put a whole handbag plus contents and without the
handbag loads of holiday stuff like passports and a bog roll and a tin
of travel sweets and things.
