Back plastic fairing

[Mayhem]

Was walking the bike into the shed this morning and bumped the rear fairings into a trailer causing a crack in the fairing. It was depressed at first ( I still am) and I have now pushed it out so it is less noticeable.

Any quick fixes available? Is it easy to source new parts or are there similar parts on other bikes that are compatible?

I suppose I could remove, patch and re- spray. Very tine poor right now though.

Any advice is greatly appreciated.

I'm sure your southern hemisphere colleagues will know of a place that does plastic welding. Can't be seen from the outside.

There is a product the we use in the repair of headlight mount tags, ABS or Prollypropolene[PPS] compatable.
It is just the usual Super Glue [ the type that comes in a really small plastic bottle, clear and very runny and will stick your fingers together in a seckond]...OK ?..we apply the super glue to the crack [it runs in due to surface tension] and then PUFF over this grey powder that looks and feels like SAND...it acually this sand powder that will dry with the glue --drys clear as it is absorbed into the glue and sets quickly for a YERY strong fix..and in your case if used from underneath,..no need to paint..its the sand that gives the glue its integrity...give it a go
