Hi guys can anybody help with finding the 11 plate green pannier covers for a friend of mine has had a little spill but is ok pride hurt more than anything else.
All and any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Sheriff
Unless he wants to splash out for full price ones from Kawasaki then it has to be Ebay and again any colour might have to be the order of the day with a respray.
Try these guys, they are bike breakers, its like walking into alladins cave, stuff from all era's.

Hi All,
I am that embarrassed 'friend' of Sheriff' - I bought the bike Friday and stalled it in a right turn on Sunday. Dropping it and scratching all the nice new panels :oops:
I will no doubt be searching for all the replacement parts over coming weeks/months as I don't particularly want to lose my no claims.
Fingers crossed they will be readily available from the breakers etc.
Thanks for the advise so far all.
PCPete, :oops: Very sorry to hear that. Hopefully not too much damage. Let people know on here what you need you never know we may be able to help.

to see what the new price is.... :sad:
Sorry to hear about that. How bad is the damage? Can you post some pics?

OK - the bits so far come to £692.01 - with my excess being £600 I don't think I'll be claiming on the insurance and racking up the premium next year. I will also be checking around for insurance deals then too. I thought moving across from the Goldwing would have made my insurance cheaper. No fool like an old fool they say :nono:
Sheriff has an exhaust I can put on it so that's a low cost option if I can't polish out the scratch on mine.
Does anyone know if you can buy the coloured part of the wing mirror on it's own - and if so the part number?
I can only find the whole unit at £143.66
Parts I have listed are -
- Part # CHKM377095 Mirror-Assy RH M.D.Green ....... £143.66 - but only need the coloured part.
- Part # CHKM253419 Cowling LWR RH F.S.Black ....... £111.59
- Part # CHKM376827 Cowling Side RH M.D.Green ..... £121.32
- Part # CHKM375026 Cover Side Bag RH M.D.Green . £315.44
Can anyone recommend a good set of roll bars/bungs that match the GTR well and would help mitigate the damage if I happened to repeat this foolish act in the future?
Just for you 'Kwikasfuk' I will post some pics....

Depends on how desperately you want the parts. I'd wait for some to popup on eBay, but your bike is the newer model so not seen many of those.
PCPete, I'd just get some overtime in, or get yourself down to work over Christmas on all those bank holidays at double bubble, before you know it you'll have more than enough to replace the damaged parts.
Either way I'd just get it fixed quickly and put it down to experience.
Before you start throwing money at Kawasaki, try contacting your local "scratch & dent" repair guy.
Some of the stuff they can do these days borders on miraculous.
A friend reversed into a concrete bollard and split and scraped the bumper on her Fiat 500.
A new bumper (colour matched, metallic orange) was something silly like £600.
She spent £150 with a local repair guy and you really cannot tell where she hit.

Appreciate the info Boomer - will be popping down to see my local chap this weekend - parts from Kawasaki would have to wait until after Xmas anyway :smiley:

Have a look on the R&G site for 'drop bars'
