Rolled it...

[monster757]

So i made a new hill climb and went to do it a second time and i rode a straight up and down wheelie for about 10 seconds, then it flipped backwards and rolled sideways two times. So now i need to know a couple things; Can you buy just the brackets to remount a light or do you have to buy the entire outter shell. If i bend the bumper back, will the brackets snap?

[Flynbyu]

Ouch.

Hoper you're okay.

I know you can replace brackets on the 660's headlights, but I'm not 100% sure on the 700. I would contact your local dealer, or look at a service manual to get the part numbers you need.

The front bumper is crap on the 700. I would be very cautions bending or heating anything on the bumper (especially if it's a stock bumper). The OEM brackets on the 700 are pretty soft, unlike the 660 (The 660 bumber bolts directly to the frame).

I hope the repairs aren't too expensive.

Thanks Brian. It is a Bling star bumper, i forgot to mention. And I hope they arent expensive either because i only work in the summer being 15 

[Flynbyu]

No problem.

You might be better off having someone make some for you that are a little stronger. They wouldn't be hard to fab.

if its the mounts im not sure... if its the black plastic bezel... i jusst picked the 2 of em up at my dealer for $11... i needed em after i highsided my quad and it rolled on me...

[monster757]

Can you send me a pic of the part that you got? Mine snapped where the bolts go.

[Blair]

yeah the dealer just called me to say they are in, ill pick it up tomorrow and snap a pic for ya...

are you talking about the black plasic peace arount the headlight? im curious about this too, i broke mine. i just thought i'd have to buy a new headlight assembly

[monster757]

You can buy just the back cover, but i dont know how to get them separated

ok i was on crack when i said that... and unfortunately when mine showed up today it was just the front bezel, not the back with the mounts, i gues i should have looked closer when mine broke before ordering the new parts... back to the dealer i go..    you know what they say about assuming

To remove the black plastic around the headlight, you just need to remove a phillips screw, and pry the plastic out. No big deal.

could i just heat the mounts on the bumper and bend them back?

[SULLY0556]

  The bumper mounts are junk.  They'll bend back but it's hard to get them right.  I'd love to see pics of someone who re-fabbed them with a better design!

[monster757]

I will probably try and make new mounts after basketball season. Mon - Fri i have school then bball till 5:30. Saturday I have games and then now i am hunting after, sunday is my day off or day to ride. But we will see what happens.
