repaired cracked fairing

[ediddy]

Last week I posted about going into the fairing to clean and grease the connections to my radio and found a bad crack in fairing. One of the tabs that are on the end of the chrome piece was completely broken and the tabs on each end of the metal piece that the shield bolts go into were broken. I used Oately ABS glue to repair the fairing and the end piece on the chrome peice. I did V7Goose's repair for the end tabs on the metal piece. The windshield is solid as a rock and there is no loose play in the shield when you clean it. I started at 5:30pm yesterday and worked until dark, about 8:30pm and started again at 10:00 this morning and finished at 2:30 this afternoon. I am whipped. It looks easy on paper but I was beginning to wonder if I was going to get everything back together. I thought I was going to have to cancel my trip for tomorrow through wednesday. I don't won't to go into the fairing for a long long time.
