Default Plastics similarities for the 87-90's models

Anybody care to offer advice/comments on what year model plastics will fit the 87'? The 87 I just picked up needs all of them. Unless someone has figured out what to use for the tab that plugs into the rubber grommets?

I have also seen a 600 Hurricane with the CBR 400's Upper fairing on it. Though I am not sure if it has to be modified, probably does as you would need to use the 400's headlights as well.

Thanks Thrasher! So, the 90 and up plastic won't fit or will it fit with some body fudging? By any chance do you know if the 1000 plastics are interchangeable? seems like there are plenty of those floating around. My 600 needs all the lowers and probably the rears as well since the tabs are broke off. Any way to fix those push on tabs?

I have glued the tabs back in place with uncured abs. The repairs have lasted for years.

Where do you get the tabs? Unfotunately the bike I have didnt come with them! I wonder if there is a suitable sub at the hardware store?

if you have a U pull it type salvage yard near by, look for second generation volkswagen golfs or jettas. it holds the horn button to the steering wheel. you need to look for a two spoke wheel, not the four spoke.
ill be hitting up the junkyards later this week, ill try and snag a few.
