Loads of hondas will use the same parts. If it's just the lever you'll be fine going for a cbr lever

Look on ebay for replacement mirrors. You could treat yourself to a new set of aftermarket ones. Or go for a cheap chinese copy.

Hope it's not to costly happens to us all at some stage. As long as no one is hurt its only a bruised wallet and ego.

Glad your OK that's the main think.

Post a thread on a bike specific forum. There will be loads of people who have modified there bikes that have the OEM parts in the loft. I did this when I dropped my bike last year. Had a pm within 12 hours offering me everything I needed at a very reasonable price.

Good luck with the repairs.

sorry to hear this, but a good excuse for aftermarket parts. Some of the aftermarket levers on ebay are as cheap as OEM items.

Sorry to hear this has happened mate. Lucky you had R&G their protection is second to none so good call on sorting that got fit to your toy before the drop! This happens from time to time and if someone says they've never dropped a bike...they will do at some point! Hope the parts your looking for get sourced soon

It's not cheap but you will get your money out of it in the longterm.
