Default 1987 Fairings

So, I am a new rider and picked this bike up to learn. However it needs some parts like new fairings. Any ideas I could use some help!

I've been getting my fairings on Ebay, but they can be spendy or need repair. I have a thread on fairing repair.

Or you could do a conversion like I did to this one. Still waiting for weather to warm up so I can paint it.

Here's pics of the conversion to 2004 RR:

Good luck like Dennis said the ones you will find will be pricey and or needing repaired. Thats why I went a different route but I bought mine with no fairings because I was building a fighter so I didnt want to strip a bike with good fairings
Hers's my build if you decide to go the fighter route

How bad are the fairings? New riders usually have a few drops so if you can wait, you might save yourself some headache.

Great point guys and thanks! Ben, your plan looks like a viable option from me given corruptfile's point. That said, it arrives Tuesday at 2PM!!!!
