Hey all Im new to triumph rat

Im farely new to biking 6 months so far. Own a nice example of the trophy 900 its a 1992 Model only done 9000 Miles and had 3 owners from new, no accident damage LOL until now...

Its a beauty. However Problem is>.......

im going to search through the forums and site after posting this but maybe one of you guys can help me out too.

Like a proper knob today i was parking my trophy 900 and thought it would be better on its side than on the stand so i dropped it. OOOOOPPPS.

Prob i have is that i smashed the RHside Indicator and require a replacement im happy removing and refitting but not sure where is best to buy one i live in the UK.

2nd problem - When i press the electric start button on the bike i get a nasty metallic clunky grating noise and it takes a while for the bike to fire (STARTING PROBLEM) - i suspect it maybe the starter motor but before i get out the haynes manual and start ripping it to inspect clean replace etc. maybe someone else has heard this on their bike and can offer some advice.

Take it easy everyone.
