What bike you talking about? If it really was only a wee accident then I'm suprised you can't find someone to fix it, there are several plastic welders and repairers out there. It might be worth taking it along to see what they say, unless it's in 1000 pieces, with bits missing, of course.

My NC30! I emailed a painter/repairer in yorkshire he says he wouldnt sort that. It has 1 part broken off, which i managed to find after the crash but the area around where its broken is heavily gouged.

Just looked through a recent copy of Classic Motorcycle Mechanics and found 4. Dream machine (expensive); Andy Bike Paintwork in Derbyshire; Plasweld (don't know where) and Farrout Paintwork in Cheshire (gave me a good quote for repairing and painting my tank). Rapier Paintwork got an outstanding review in another one of the comics very recently, a bit pricey and a waiting list. They all mention repairs but won't give you a price without seeing the damage (obviously). Depends where you live I guess. You could also try asking at your nearest bike shop, they may know someone local.
Failing that try DK motorcycles/breakers near Newcastle-under-Lyne on the A34, just off the M6, they have a mountain of stuff.

By the way, you're much better off phoning these people rather than emailing. It's easier to describe the damage and get an instant response - a lot of them are busy so don't get round to checking emails very often.

Dream Machine repaired my seriously smashed up NC24 nose plastics, without problem. (this was 24 years ago though)!
