If your case is only cracked you may be able to repair that too?

Well I did the same a few years back , first I had the frame polished but I wasnt happy with it , So I got a profesional Ally welder to fill it then had it powder coated , but that means a full bike strip down.

You could buy a Bagster tank bag, that would hide the tank damage, but not cure it. Depends how you feel about a codge-up? Glad you're OK, that's the main thing.

Glad you're OK :)

Had one BB cover, only few really small marks that it is not a new one. Changed it from one insurance repair.

But... Sold it to one of my friends, also BB left side mirror, handle bar weight, clutch lever, foot peg, front mudguard etc small parts, these i ordered from my work and payed my own. That friend, never paid those parts for me (it was year ago) and now he is telling my friends that i am weird because i'm not his friend anymore :laugh:

I would feel much better if i could donate that cover for you now :laugh:

But nothing doing, that BB cover will fit for sure.

Haa, i'm happily weird

He also had nerves to ask if i could get him cheap chain and sprocket set, i asked that as cheap as previous parts?

I think that he got me...

I filled a scuff on my frame with car body filler. Make sure you sand it all down first till it's perfectly smooth then fill it and sand it, fill it and sand it ect ect untill you get it right.

I then sprayed my frame rails matt black so now you can't tell. :)
