Mood: Bike or Yacht..... tough choice on sunny day ;-)
Unhappy Disaster :-(

I thought my name was quite apt, but clearly i underestimated this !

Last Friday was pottering back froma coffee stop, its about 4 miles home but of course takes 30+ on a nice day.....

Proceeding at a leisurely pace following cars around a medium left hander the traffic stops suddenly and i overreact with the front brake...... and the front washes out.

Only doing about 35 so not hurt but my wallet is facing a major hammering :-(

So the question dear Ducatisti is : do i pay the good people at P&H a fortune to replace the fairings, mirrors, lh handlebar, tank, monoposto rear section etc etc with all new ducati parts, or is there a better way ???

Looking on ebay there are a few of the parts that i need advertised, but by no means all of them.

The bike is an 04 999s registered in 05, so not been on the road a year yet.
I pretty much expect to keep the bike forever, so whilst i dont mind spending a fair amount on it i dont want to throw money away.

Help and comments gratefully received :-)
