Change of plans, parts needed urgently
I binned my KLR a few days ago and did moderate damage to it, which I thought I could fix as I went. Unfortunately the right foot rest went today and as a result the bike visited the woods again. I now urgently need the following parts before I can continue:
. starter motor
. right standard footpeg + mount or complete replacement for both footpegs
also on the wish list would be a front brake lever, handlebars, a new front disk and a few other bits, but these are not essential. (Aparently hurting myself is much less of a drag than hurting the bike.)
I am in Chiapas at Palenque and *can* ride the bike by bump starting it, but obviously I can't go too far easily. I do know there is not a Kawa dealer in the nearest large town, Villahermosa (spelling?) and that there is one in Merida, but that's a long way up the road, even if it looks like I'm heading tht way.
Suggestions would be much appreciated.
