I JUST DROPPED MY BIKE!!!
SHIIIIIIIIT. I was trying to get my baby up on my Pit Bull stand - and I DROPPED IT TO THE RIGHT SIDE!!!!
SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT.
Damage count:
1. Right side front turn signal - scuffed
2. Right side handle bar weight - scuffed
3. Right side front "wing" - slightly scuffed
AND the BIG oh shit..
4. Right side clutch cover - CRACKED (VERY slight - didn't notice it at first) - leaked some oil out
SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT.
Anyone know how much this stuff costs? Who are we supporting at the site at this point (I'll throw em some buisness when I get the cash saved up). Also - should I be concerned about any additional damage? I "Dropped" it in my garage REALLY gental (couldn't stop it tho). Maybe its time for the muzzy clutch and basket? How hard are they to install for a first timer?

The cover is $100 or so at RonAyers.. of course thats bare.. so you'll need the bearings and sight glass from your original. Im sure you can find a used one cheaper than that.. being 00-04 are all the same.
Front turn signal... just get some flush mounts
Handle bar weight...come'on you serious?
Wing?? If its a 00 perhaps you can still "recall" warranty it otherwise they cost about $45 new.
From now on... put a 1x4 or 2x4 under the kickstand before putting on the Pitbulls.

Hey RonAyers' site ROX - I didn't know you could look the parts up online like that!!! Looks like 250 bucks for EVERYTHING . Not bad... how hard is it to just replace the clutch cover? Will I need to mess around with the clutch at all? I want to stay away from that if possible.

2000s had recalls on the "wings" cause red locktite was put on the screws on the inside and the loctite caused the wings to crack.
Pretty common recall.
Perhaps the site glass isnt part of the cover. Its not hard to replace the cover.. just installing the bearings is a bitch.

I'm planning on getting all the parts listed on this page :
http://www.ronayers.com/fiche/400_0476/engine_cover/engine_cover.cfm?CFID=40050&CFTOKEN=18311366
Are the bearings the part number 92042A? If not, what part number are they on the diagram?

You know the story, not matter how bad yours is someone has it worse! Remember I was putting my bike on the stand and had my wife on the left side if the bike when it slipped off of the stand and "Threw" her high side over the bike and she landed on her face with her glasses breaking and cutting her above her right eye where she had to get 3 stitches! Everything you has, except I had the Piece 0 trash LP CF Clutch cover which absorbed the blow and just scatched it a little and that was it! At least no one was hurt!
Have your cover welded and put the CF Cover over it! It will be betteR!!

WOW - you definately know how to make someone feel better Vincent - although I am sorry to hear about the injury! Mine is just mechanical stuff - and maybe a good "excuse" to throw the muzzy clutch/basket in my bike (FINALLY) .

Maybe I got yours  Randall (My step son) Got the dyno and clutch cover from when my bike fell off the side stand on the left side a year 1/2 ago (Bike running in the alley locking the gate slightly pointed down hill fell over and broke the foot peg bracket aaand scraped the left side fairing from picking it up!) No ride that day either.
He worked for another dealer and got it for about $60?? They have them now, they are "EXTREMELY" thin, but use an adhesive tape that "MUST" cure for 3 full days (otherwise it will fall off). I have now fallen over twice on the right side and no damage to the clutch cover! Order one through your dealer!
