Hey all - I just took out my Pamplona from winter storage and found the right handle area has some "play" it moves up and down, almost rolling in a curved motion. What do you guys think happened? easily fixable?
I was in a scooting accident a few months ago and haven't really rode it since it was serviced. perhaps something was overlooked.
thanks

Yes - it needs tightened up - you can see the movement from the two pics you posted.
There are two forward facing phillips screws that hold the whole assembly or 'box' on, hope this is not it because that means loosening up the top cover to get the screw driver in there.
I would first check the alignment, then see if the main bolt (this will be a reverse threaded bolt) that holds your mirror on is not loose - my guess the mirror was hit and knocked loose - align the grip then tighten turning left to tighten (this will feel backwards).
Even with this you may want to go by and have your local dealer/mechanic check it out to be sure you are good to go.
