F2 Fairings from Hong Kong

A question for mario... I've been looking into these fairings, and assumed the tail section was molded from a non-US CBR, becasue of the holes for the grab bar. Looking at the last mounting hole where the panel boss snaps in, on the US models would appear to be in the way of the grab bar. so i can assume that the rear post did not line up with the mounting hole?
anyway I have tracked down part numbers for the frame stay and the grab bar itself, these should bolt right up to the US model, and might eliminate the fitting problem by relocating the last hole, ....that is if im correct

Just got mine in today and put them on.
Holy crap, what a fun time THAT was. They... fit. Not well, at all, but they fit. Funny thing is, afterwards fit and finish doesn't look bad at all. This is of course after I learned the fine art of stretching plastic. Yeesh.
Looks pretty damn good though. Definitely worth the money spent, a little hassle up front but it turned out nice.

I just ordered a windscreen for my F2 from a place in Hong Kong via ebay. Order confirmed that day, shipped the next, they say 10-14 days to get it to me here in Colorado U.S.A. Price, including shipping, was less than 1/2 when compared to others like Zero Gravity.
I'll let ya know how this turns out...

Which seller - I got mine from Moto-777 - sounds like the same scenario as you. Shipping was right at the 10 days quoted.
the windscreen appears to be nice - but I haven't pulled it out of the foam but once - my fairings are waiting for me to get paint on them before I can bolt everything up.
