Well so far specific Bostrom bits which are no longer available..

Blue Bostrom grips (same as standard but blue)
Headlamp bucket and mirror supports (again standard but blue in colour)

If anyone knows of one which is being broke and those parts are salvageable can they let me know please

Poor old Bob

who says they are not available?

also a solution for the grips is to buy a complete throttle
which comes with grips although its about £40 but you could
sell the throttle if its not needed

Bolds, the problem is the Bostrom came with blue grips, not black as every other model, they were specific to that replica, so getting black grips detracts from the original

order the bostrom throttle which comes with blue grips :P

[JPM]

Is that available though???

rebuild it using renthals, and worry about the std stuff later!

Andy that's the plan, but if I can source some or at least get some feelers out it's a start, the bike is never in road trim, so all of the original bodywork, tank, wheels are untouched luckily and mint, so it's only right to get it back that way

err....you might be apparantly....

Sorry - not helpful at all. Coat was not even taken off when I entered the room so that'll save some time.

Sorry to hear about Lily's off though - hope she gets well soon.

if you still have some of the old head light bracket left keep it.
you can then use it as a match to get a standard one painted up.
is that all the stuff you need ? if so sounds like she crashed well
