Where to buy fairings for my 88?
Hi, my friend recently dropped my bike (just walking it) I tried reaching dealers for a seat cowl, and side fairings but no luck. Anyway I'm looking into buying a new fairing kit for my 88 cbr 600. I can't seem to find a good spot that sells for my model. Can I use different years ? If so what models will fit flush with mine? And I'm not looking to spend that much, it's still my first bike but I can look a lot better.
* If I decide to buy a kit that doesn't have the "cyclopse" headlight Will I have to re-modify my bikes wiring or headlight assembly.. How does that work?
-Sorry about the repost, I messed up the title before.

Airtech is the only company I know of that makes the full set of fairings for these bikes anymore. You do have to fab the mounting points yourself though.
You may also consider repairing the existing bodywork. I had multiple big cracks in a few pieces when I bought the bike, but you can't see any of them now. I plastic welded the cracks and repainted all the bodywork.

This is the best writeup I have seen that explains everything: Plastics repair with ABS cement - Ninja250Wiki
I also used some plastic weld epoxy on the back sides in high stress areas for reinforcement. Don't try heating that stuff w/ a soldering iron though it does not work like abs plastic does.
For the seat cowl you're pretty much limited to Airtech or Ebay as far as I am aware. I think the airtech cowls are only like $50 though.. everything is on the website I posted up there.
