I got £700 off a 08 883R brand new as i hit them at the right time ie Dec when there not selling as many bikes .When i got my NightTrain they would not give any money off but as it was just as the 07 models came out it was a sellers market.

getting of the point a minute would you believe that i reversed into my bike last night in my drive. got the bike out to go for a spin and parked it in the drive till i moved my van out the way and reversed right into it knocking the bike of the stand and onto its side. all i could see was my bike out my mirror falling and throwing bins out the way as it hit them.

it damaged the brake lever and mirror cosmetically but somehow managed no more damage apart from a pillion peg which is coming of anyway and the rear blinker again about to be changed so no biggy. i cant beleive my luck not to have done more damage i was expecting dented tank and scratched frame etc.

im hoping to get the scuffed parts touched up whilst still on the bike has anybody else sufferd this misfortune and is it possible to touch these parts up or am i going to have to bite the bullet and cough up for new bits. mirrors are harley ones with led indicators on the back so quite expensive and hard to get of.

the realisation of what i had done was awful i picked the bike of the ground myself. theres alot of strength in embarassment and i felt like a dick.
i prayed for little damage as poss and lucky it wasnt to bad about £300 worth if i were to buy new parts and fit myself. hopefully i can get a body shop to buff them up and give them a coat.

was expecting new fender today but customs have it (bastards) i really wanted to fit it tonight looks like it will be mon/tuesday will post pics as soon as its on.
