Ok I got a 97' 600 and I need a new Front Fariing Stay. Can I only use from F3's or can i use one from a different year? I really need to get one asap for a trip I want to go on. So if anyone can help me out. Much appriciated

 

95-98 are the same.

 

Yea, I figured the 95-97 were the same. But is that it. Can only F3's be used or can u have like a F2 or newer.

 

I've heard of people putting F3 stays on F2's and using F3 fairings. I'm gonna guess the opposite is true. Those stupid brackets are damned expensive

 

yea this whole thing is pissing me off. Really hard part to find.

 

Not hard to find... just hard to find a cheap one

$150 buy it now, or bid on it, seems decent

$140 buy it now used, seems overpriced, may be bent

$250 new OEM

They show up in the for sale section as well, from time to time

 

will an f2 stay work .. i believe yes... will you have to use that compatible year f2 fairing.. yes .

 

check the price for an OEM. look around a couple places

 

Wow, Ok thanks for all the help

 

Hey if someone looks up the OEM price, do me a favor and get back to me with it. I've heard its $299 but that was from an ebay auction so I dont neccesarrily beleive it.

Also I've heard that its probably best to just buy OEM because most of the used ones are bent to some degree or another and you'll end up needing a new OEM. The price difference isnt HUGE persay, so I'll probably try and get a good deal on a new OEM for mine.

If the cluster I ordered works, I'm going to try and hammer my existingbracket back into place. I'd love to hear if anyone has been sucessful at doing this! If the cluster doesnt work... its F4i cluster time
