Hello guys,
Several months ago I had a crash with my bike, and I had to repair most of its plastic parts - huge scratches on the mask and the right light, broken side spoiler under the seat, scratched tank and broken rear grab handle.
Most of my bike is already fixed and looking like brand new, but I was having issues finding the rear grab handle - it is very expensive if I get it from the Yamaha dealership in my country, and I was told that the alloy it was made from did not allow any kind of welding.
I was able to partially assemble it by drilling a couple of wholes and attaching the broken part with bolts, but they are very thin and I don't believe that this is the best solution.
Anyway, I was able to find a rear grab handle on a price I could afford, which was detached from an Yamaha FZ6 Fazer from 2009 but my doubt here is if this handle would fit on my bike, since it is Yamaha FZ6 Fazer S2 from 2006 .
I tried finding part manual on the internet, but wasn't able to. The handlebars look exactly the same to me, but I'm afraid that there might be difference in the clips, bolts and other assembly specifics.
I will add some photos when I have the chance.
I'd appreciate any advice on this one.
Thank you in advance !
