I'd certainly love to help you, but I don't have one of these bikes (maybe someday). If anyone can help though, it would be someone in the RR section. I'm move the post there and see if anyone pops in.

Did you get the fairings from us by any chance?

oh no.....i was looking at them today...i am thinking some mounting screws on the tank cover may be loose because i can push on it a lil bit and it moves so will check them next chance i get.

Are they OEM or aftermarket? If aftermarket who you get them from?

I'm having the same problem with my 06RR. THey are the OEM fairings and I can't get them to stay up under the tank... Any help would be appreciated. THanks,

I kept having the same issue but on my left side. What I did is loosen up all the screws that hold the fairing on, push it back into place and then snug the screws back down. I didn't go too tight cause I didn't want the tabs to keep popping out but not loose enough where they fall off. No issue since.

Default Uh Oh.

Well i may have discovered something....this is my first salvage build...i think i did well for the most part...however....i am discovering that these lil clips on the gas tank cover go to something and i am thinking i totally missed a left and right small cowl pieces.
