Crashed Ridgeback....oh no!

[mattathm]

Sold my Ridgy to a guy who crashed it 4 days later.
Went to the gas station brought a coke, had a sip, stashed it down his vest and on his way......

Later down the road it managed to wriggle down and pop outta the vest onto the road and somehow under the rear tyre it went and he got spat off!

The bike slid along the road and when it went off the road, it flipped over so damage is on both sides.... bugger.

Thought I might post the pics in the knowledge of some of you folk for advice.

We are in New Zealand, so we cannot take the bike to any shop for repair.
We have to do it on our own.

Who is the best place for parts with the best service?
Does anyone have a wiring diagram for the Right side controls, ie colours to where?
Any tip or tricks on the assy or disassembly, wiring or whatever would greatly be of help.
Thanks....

After re doing the bike it will look very custom if your follow this thread. There is a post somewhere in here telling you where to get what parts and so on: http://www.bigdogbiker.com/forums/customizing/2421-rebirth-phoenix.html

Man, shit happens a lot of late. Hope the buyer will be ok.

You sold the RB, what did you replace it with?

 

[Gas Man]

OMG... a tear in my eye

That is terrible.

hope he's ok

How did you get wrangled into helping if you sold it? Not that I wouldn't do the same...

Never heard of a soda pop bottle causing a accident...

As Knotso layed out in a link... I just did a complete re-build on mine. If you ahve any frame damage you will be welcomed to my world. Can go thru my Phoenix threads and see what you have to look forward if you decide to take it on yourself vs a shop.

As far as parts... ebay, Nelson, or Vickie... depending on what you want....

Good luck...

[Salty Dawg]

OUCH...if this dog looks that bad I hate to see the other one! Hope your buddy is ok. On the bright side you can now justify all the cool new parts to upgrade.

 

[05chop]

This sucks. Is freight for the parts expensive?
