Wind plus Cover, bad bad bad
My other post got removed as they said I couldn't ask for parts unless my post was in the proper section. So, if you are reading this twice sorry for the double post.
This is what happens when the wind got under my cover this morning. The rest of the bike is completely fine except for the nose. I find this odd that it was the only piece to break. So, if you leave your bike out and the weather man says windy, remove that cover.

There is still a gust here and there, but no worries now as I am not putting the cover back on until the rain comes.

There is a new white bill on ebay.it
List price from Ducati is around $750. This guy is looking for €180 (like 250 US shipped)
