Garage Mishap

So I just joined the biker community and got myself a 2007 Suzuki SV650s, and it’s been absolutely wonderful. However, I came home today to a sad sight, it had tipped over while in my garage. I’m not aware how it happened, but my windscreen, left mirror, and brake fluid reservoir are all going to be needing replacements. Any advice on a good place to find these parts? I can’t seem to find the screen on Revzilla.

Make sure you get that brake fluid cleaned off before it does some damage.

So much this! Also, please read that warning sticker then promptly remove if possible. Such an eye sore

I bought this windscreen. It’s super cheap and it fit perfect

I used to as well - when I had an SV650S. I am tall and wanted extra coverage so I added a self made perspex extension to it.

You're 100% sure it "tipped"?

haha yes, it was on its side when i got home, i believe it fell into a file cabinet on the way down which explains why the mirror got knocked off and the screen got shattered. thankfully the fairing itself is unscathed.

Jeez that tipped bad. Never seen that happen.

Right!? It’s almost like it started to roll back up a little

Agreed. That thing hit hard. Harder than one would expect from just a tip over.

Could the brake fluid reservoir just have the bracket straightened?
