Cool Fairings, Good! Pro-Bolt, Bad!

Well got a new set of red and black fairings (ebay) for christmas but was missing just a few screws and the quick snaps. Thought i'd just go ahead and order a new kit. Quick and easy with everything you need, Not so much! Got the kit From Pro-bolt USA for my F2 and ended up using my remaining old hardware plus the few screws they gave me! But the good news is the fairings look great and fit pretty good as well!! Just thought i would spread the word...

Hey, who was the seller on the fairings you received? Care to post a picture of the new installed set? If I were to choose one, it would be the red and black...

Kapscomoto was the seller, took a few weeks to come in but it was the holidays and they are from china so i didnt think that was to bad. I had a rough time picking the color scheme, there was alot of ones that i liked but i'm happy with the red and black! I tried to download a pic but not shure if it worked? If not i can e-mail pics...

Still not completely done with the install. Rode it withough the plastic cuz it was such a nice day in the middle of winter here in ohio and didnt think about the headlight just being held on by a couple forks so now im waiting ona a new headlight. But the only issues i've had are that on the passenger side where the tail section is sopposed to pop in place. Well the hole in the front is to big so gona try to fix it with a rubber gromet. and the holes for the like plastic quick snap screws dont line up perfectly.. But alll in all not bad! and thanks...

haha... headlight.... did it fall out when you were braking? smashed on the ground?

zip ties/zap straps held mine in place when front fairing was off.

DAMN SEXY is what that bike is.

I thought about buying fairings from ebay but i cant make myself put another 500 bucks into this bike. Im going to save it for a newer model. Looks good though!
