fairing mirror repair

[playtime]

had a bitta slide recently on left side
left hand fairing mirror broke off
alloy metal piece seems to be part of frame and not replaceable so need welding
any advice on resolution appreciated

Hope you're ok and uninjured.

The whole mirror assembly is attached by 3 nuts - the bolts are part of the mirror assembly. Just remove the "inner fairing panel" to get access to the nuts.

Easiest solution is to buy a replacement (eBay?) and swap out the colour-matched plastic cover.

Just a thought.

Only the gen1 mirrors will work...   Some have made the gen2 work but either with adapters or fabrication.

Oh f**k. That looks rather serious. You're going to need a new "sub-frame" component, for want of a better term, along with new bit of fairing (that goes round the headlight).
