Gaffer tape & cable ties are the usual quick fixes Paul 
Where did you drop it ?
I'm off to Balderstons this afternoon - have you tried them for the part ?
If you ring Matt & he's got it in I could pick it up for you.

I dropped mine when the engine stalled halfway through a right turn. I now have the screen sitting slightly to one side. The rear alloy hoop got bent quite badly and the front hoop only slightly.
I have taken a chance and pulled the front screen loop straight. It was out by only a few mm. The GSA rear screen hoop is toast.
But the screen still sits slightly to one side. Careful measuring showed the beak subframe is sitting high at one side. So that will have to be straightened as well.
Put bike on centre stand and sit on the seat. Look at the beak top just ahead of the forks. If one side seem to slope more than the other, the subframe has bent. I have bought a used straight subframe but if I believe if the beak is otherwise straight the problem is likely to be only where the alloy screen frame bolts on to the subframe.
Its a tedious job to measure straighten and refit the beak and frame etc until its sitting correctly.

Dropped it when i was in Ireland (fell off the side stand)
I've ordered one from Motorwork on Tuesday they are waiting for stock
