Default Good Shops in NOVA

My friend knocked over my bike. Now it needs work X_X. Anyways it needs the clutch cover and brake pedal reaplaced. Where is a good shop to do this in NOVA it needs to be done soon cause I am using this bike to commute and just got it a few days ago so I am hella irritated. Any idea on how badly its going to rape my friend since he is paying for the repairs. also cracked the fairing he did >_<

clutch cover....bout 85 bucks
brake pedal....bout 25 bucks
fairing.....depends on the bike, anywhere from $200-$600

sportbikes are 'spensive.

it is a ninja 500ex A5 which of course means it is a 1991. To Steve: I was sourcing parts today and it looked like a brake pedal was goign to be 65 dollars and a clutch cover was going to be 135. I still can not believe it, one week one week!!!! I do not care about the fairings are much as i do my bike running though. I thought I would be the one to break it too, not my friend who which in an awsome sense of irony is a licensed motorcyclist. God loves me.

oh ok, i figured it was a brand new bike...like right off the showroom floor kinda new. you can get clean used stuff for that all day long. i wouldn't pay the outrageous prices for new parts. but hey, if the guy that dropped it wants to buy new stuff, more power to him.

Yeah unfortuently the bike is how I get around to work and all of that so I can not really afford the down time of having to hunt for new parts or used ones on a site like ebay or whatever. I mean, unless you know of a bike that is being parted out right now at this very moment. Then yeah.
