well.. 2 weeks ago, we got a heavy snow here, and it was iced over and all.. And I decided to ride my bigred some. And I got a little carried away, do I was doing a little powersliding/drifting in the snow/ice. And I made a turn and slid a little to far, going into a 3foot ditch sideways.. Well let's just say, this accident caused a little damage :(. So I need to know where the best and cheapest place to get replacement parts at.. (the Honda store wants too much) Well, I need a new handle bar. (possibly a new throttle assembly) and I need a new left rear fender. (the right rear has a small crack, but no big deal) Now I think the Honda store wants $170 for the fender ( I'm not sure if it's both or just one fender) and I can't find the handle bars on the web site, so I'll call tomarrow So let me know where the best place to get these parts are

If the bars arnt kinked you can use a piece of pipe and straighten them out .

The handle bars are bent down pretty far( just the right side of the bars).. but I will try this tip.. thanks shortline. But for the fender, Ive found most of the pieces that broke off.. Its ont the side right next to the tail light in almost a 3x4 inch size.. I might try to save it with some 40/50 plastic bond stuff and repaint it.. But I doubt it will look good.
Im really bummed about this.. I should have not ridden that day, but luckily I wasnt seriously hurt.
