Welcome Mate. Pretty easy, even for me. Write and post.As Chris said, drag pics from wherever, sometimes need to be resized,attach and post. Youll figure it out. Pic of bike to start with.

Gidday Merrick, welcome to the forum.  Tell us a bit more about your bike (and you)  Cheers

[Andre]

 

Yeah we like to see pics of the bike as well as details about it. Can't get enough of that.

Advice is given here freely. Even more so when plenty of details about the problem, issue, etc. are provided by the one seeking advice.

G'day, thanks everyone for the advice, and the welcome, I took ownership of the bike Feb.24, from a deceased estate (a good mate who owned it since new), 2007 K7 series, 45,000 on clock, never dropped. Needed some TLC, new parts, detail etc, fitted new fork tubes (rust pitting), polished engine covers, Black Widow muffler, new bars, levers, mirrors etc.

Unfortunately, first ride out, end of August, got cleaned up by some wildlife north of Bathurst, and the bike was written off by insurance company. I now have the bike at home, insurance company paid out, now it's back on the hoist, and getting rebuilt, fully plan to put it back on the road, and keep it for a long time.

That's some nasty gravel rash Merrick!  How'd you fare in it?  Must of healed ok.    I think @Tony Nitrous has 1400 spares, dunno if he sells them  though.

Merrick, Look Motorcycles Melbourne wrecking a 14.Dont know model etc. might be worth a phone call

[Mick_J]

Mine has been written off (Cat  N)as the fuel tank is no longer available.  So if anyone else wants to drop their bike don't bend the tank. 

[KiwiCol]

Hasn't Notty got a brand new spare tank?

[grog]

Im now looking for a spare, hens teeth but will become dodo teeth.

[Andre]

Hasn't Notty got a brand new spare tank?

If he doesn't, he can donate the one of his bike. Doesn't need it anyway

Not at the moment. I may break / part out a few bikes in the future though. At the moment I'm buying more than I'm selling.
