    Crash lowside. Need a metal piece that holds on the brake and footpeg.

    I stupid lady pulled out and didn't indicate in front of me I braked hard and the bike lowsided.

    Fairing a bit stretched not cracks. Just this metal piece that holds on the foot peg broke.

    How much to get on?

    Do you have all the bits? Is it steel or alloy? Either way it's weldable. Any competent engineering shop should be able to sort it out.

    I would say its a common piece. Its not steel its this shitty casted alloy by the looks of the inside of the broken bit. I will probably get it from bucket bits unless someone can supply for less then $85.

    Here is a pic of the part I need. I would labor at someones house as a slave for it if they could fit it the same day.

    Trying bucketbits but he seems a hard man to get hold of... strange. http://www.imageupload.org/?di=1212916303140

    Crashing under brakes is not the same as low siding IMHO.

    Anyway, Buckets and bits guy is quite hard to get hold of but he's also a very busy bugger. Send him an email and he'll usually get back to you within 48 hours. Unless of course he doesn't like you. Then you'll never hear from him.

    DISREGARD THAT. I FOUND A SUPER ENGINEER WITHE ELITE SKILLZ.


    I don't think buck bits got my model right. He linked me to GPX parts.

    Unweldable. Can't find the part any in NZ not even dealerships.


    Great its a ride off because of a footpeg bracket. I am praying bucket bits will save me and have the bracket for zzr250.

    Oh yeah I know its not the same as lowsiding but its pretty much the same damage you get from coming off on a corner.

    I have no idea why I said lowside...

    Fuck buying a new one, liquid nails and duct tape will fix it.

    Fix a computer and it'll break tomorrow.
    Teach its owner to fix it and it'll break in some way you've never seen before.

    It's pretty funny. So wait, the bracket holding your foot peg is going to have liquid nails holding it together?! Is that what you are asking? If that is bad?

    That's some funny shit bro.
