Default Got my fairings today for swap

Holy **** this isn't as easy as I thought. No clue where to run the hoses and wires, etc.. on left side that are mounted and hanging from the frame. Need to get a bolt kit I guess because mine def. don't work. And the fairings are not 100% accurate, that pisses me off just a bit. Other than that though it will look sweet I hope when finished. need to get this puppy done in the next week because it is getting nice here in NV

Can I remove those air hoses that went to the front of the F3 front fairing or is that needed to keep it cool?

those hoses feed air to the Carbs below 12MPH, unless you've removed the solenoid that they run through

The bike is naked right now. Have to find out what type of bolts the fairings and windshield take before I can start mounting.

Get a ton of zipties, they will help alot.
What type of fairings did you get? Fiberglass or Plastic?
One hint of advise lol, Make sure you have someone putting the bolts in while you hold the fairings tight.

At first mine fit like leather pants in alaska.......

I had to pull fight and complain but they will fit and only take a very min amount of trimming.

Good luck dude post alot of pictures.
