forks may just be tweaked in the triple clamps. very easy fix, if it is.

Someone told me to try loosening all the bolts on the front end and then pushing it down a few times so the forks and everything can straighten themselves out, then tighten it all back up.

wow...so I just had to pay $55+tax for a left front turn signal. and they want $75+tax for the left side tank plastic....wow, I think some coloured electrical tape will work well for most of it untill I can find some better prices. I'm sure i'm not the only one to down a 250 SE. maybe some one took a spill on the right side of their bike and still has some good left or front farings lol

Mike - I can help you with how to do a fiberglass patch from the back side if you'd like :)

untill I can find some better prices

Check Babbitt's Sports Center online... They've got the best prices for OEM parts I've seen (except you've got to pay shipping). I usually buy from my local dealer but use their prices as a reference - my dealer says he appreciates the business and doesn't complain that I make him get close to the online prices, so I'll keep doing it. :D

almost. loosen the 4 bolts on the triple clamps that hold the forks. with them loose, find a stationary object (wall, curb, tree, etc) and whack the wheel/tire sideways into the stationary object from the opposite direction of the misalignment. once straight, retorque the 4 bolts.

cool, thx kelly! I'll give that a try as soon as I can use tools again, sadly it was my right had I hurt so it could be another week. I hope it's that easy.

Any luck searching for a SE fairing mike? I'm looking into it too lol and the best thing I could find was a green fairing on ebay for cheap, paint the black yourself then buy cheap white vinyls. Dunno dealer prices yet...

I am going to have duplicates from my rebuild most likely. Haven't figured out what yet though. Some will need repairs though and it will be straight green. Once all the parts get here I'll go through them and let you know....assuming you haven't found any yet

that would be great!

I haven't bought anything yet. the bike is rideable so it's just my ego that is at stake now lol.

thx rob

Sounds rough, glad you're ok. If I crash I know where to send the parts ;)

How much is St. Onge asking for the replacement bits?

July 13th, 2009, 04:27 AM
st.Onge is asking $525 for the upper front, $80 for the lower side, $75 for the tank plastic, and $85 for the left tail side....I didn't ask what a new lest handle bar would be lol....those are crazy prices....They charged me $60 for a new turn signal, but they had the fastest delivery time so i just paid it so i could get back out on the rd.

hold on! do you mean $525 for the front side and $80 for the front?! Cause otherwise you're getting a sweet deal on the front side fairing.

This is what I got from Kahuna:

The SE side fairing is $749.53 per side, and for the 2008 green is $334.12 per side. The SE fairings come pre painted in the black white and green color.

and instead of replacing the bars why not just get bar sliders? The shogun kit comes with fairing, bar and spool sliders

2008 green should be $198 for a lower cowling. Unless that (334.12) includes shipping. mrcycles.com is where I found mine.

**my bad**

I ment $480 for the side. TYPO lol.

I went to St.Onge in barrie, side cowling for the SE (black and green, not sure if it included the white sticker) was $480
The front (around the head light) was $525

Might be parting my bike out instead of fixing it up. Can't find a good used frame
