Well done , the first step is getting everything off, are you going to keep the same colour scheme. It looks really nice in Red.

Good luck and keep the photos coming :)
Are the clipons a common part that was used on other models?
It will be great to see another RED one restored and back on the road :)

I might have a bar clamp, give me a few days to look. GPz ones look the same but are slightly bigger.

This is a common fault if the bike is crashed or even just falls over. Is this like yours Aman ?

Yes, absolutely right. Same condition & same crashed point. Need your advice on alternative can be replaced?

I don't think there's anything else that will fit Aman. GPZ looks the same part but it's slightly larger and the holes don't line up. I think I might have a spare KR one, I'll check but won't get chance until this weekend.

It looks like the perfect project for someone with access to cnc equipment, manufacturing some replacements :)
