who's good at it (either on the site or shop), like, really good?

For the gixer, the right rear set and the pillion peg/exhaust mount (else I wouldn't bother) are bent and need bendin back. Can be done, but I don't have the tools aside from a big hammer, and I don't want to damage the frame it's attached to, or the paint on it.

More importantly, the lower triple clamp is bent, that needs bendin back into shape.

suggestions?

Well, personally, I thought it was quite a miserable little tit. Mr Spankme does a much better line in tits.

Maybe the resident supporter of lost causes can look after this one........

try Wheel and Frame NZ down in Cambridge. Failing that, ebay is your friend, but you should know that already. Dont forget to try the .co.uk and .com.au aswell.
