i am new to this forum and i am looking into buying my first bike i am looking at a 2003 cbr 600 f4i mech speaking it is great and runs good but there is no fairings on the bike it was laid down and the plastic is crap he is asking 3200 and i found a full set of fairings for 300 what do you guys think

 

as long as u r sure everything is mech sound, andit wasn'tmessed up to bad, 3g's sounds like a gud deal, probably wouldn't go more that that though

 

3g sounds like a good deal. i paid 3800 for mine and i needed to replace the fairings as well.

 

If the bike went down hard enough to destroy the plastic, check the:

clutch and brake levers
pegs - brake and shifter
are the turn signals attached?
forks bent?
oil in odd places like under fuel tank?

Good luck

 

Werd. How many miles are on this sound bike that you speak of? 300 sounds pretty good for a full set of fairings.

 

there is just under 9000 on the bike i am going to look at it and possibly buy this weekend and i will deffinetly give it a very good look over and the set of fairings for three hudred sounded like a good deal but i would have to pay almost 200 to get them shipped so i think ill keep looking for a set closer to me
thanks for the help

 

You must be talking about those ebay fairing set from Hong Kong. $500 is about the price you have to pay for the whole set. Even if you find a supplier here in the US, they probably cost for more than $500. Just a reminder though, many of those fairing from Hong Kong doesnt fit right and quality isnt good. You have to get it from a reputable seller. I've good things from people who bought their fairings from ming88 and auctmarts on ebay.

 

in addition to the above: tires and brakes are a good thing to check

I once bought a bike with ahole in therear tire. It held air long enough for the test ride

 

ya they are from over seas but i did find a set here but they are racing fairings what would the difference be just the look ????

 

the difference in the racing fairings is that they don't have hole for the headlight, and also the tail is only one piece race tail without the option of a passenger seat...and also check if they have the holes for the blinkers, or you might have to drill them...
good luck with the bike-3200$-very good price...
