If it ain't too bad .... [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

You could try a repair.

A more expensive alternative is to buy covers - [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

This the option I went for as I've seen a couple of bikes where a slide has ended the ride as it ground through till oil went everywhere :( and this offers further protection which unfortunately I has the pleasure of trying out.....and it did its job.

Good luck

Yeah I've been looking and they relay are not cheap. I can get a very very scratched one for £40. But all the others are way to expensive for a poor uni student!

Yeh, I think brand new they are around £100. Not surprising bikes are so easily written off. I have seen somewhere on the Internet someone filling their scratched one and painting it. Perhaps that might be a more student-friendly option.

I dont want to be stranded with 30 grands worth of debt before i even start my adult life so i dont get a student loan. I work 3 jobs so i can pay for tuition fees, rent and all my food and what little money i have left i spend on my bike :-D

£21 is around what i would like to spend. Mines not too bad but i worried that if water gets in it might cause issues.

Did you manage to find one? I'm also looking and not willing to pay £100 on ebay for a new one, and no second hand ones on there at the moment!

Ah I see. Unfortunately I don't think you will get a 2nd hand one come up very often. I think there's aftermarket versions kicking around as well if that's an option but don't think they're cheap either, from memory.

I think they're uprated/stronger. Mainly for track days when people are coming off and smashing up the standard covers.

The ones that Rosco mentioned above....

Carbonadi link

are going fairly cheap (for what they are) at the moment.... looks like the generator cover is approx. £35 plus postage.... and they're brand new wink thumb up

I think they've come down in price since Rosco bought his....??

Thanks guys, we're going to go for the Carbonadi ones - half the price of a damaged second hand replacement I found on ebay.
