so i had my first crash last monday and it scared the crap out of me... it was a slow crash around 25 and i was just wantin to know what all do i need to check.. a guy on a bike slowed down in front of me to turn around and stopped right in front of me and i hit his rear end and it was over from there the nose peice is screwed and the right side fairing is to... its still rideable. where is a good place to buy some good fairing at it the red and white 01 f4i. and is it hard to match the paint?

 

I'll give this thread a bump as I'm curious to find out about great locations to locate 2001 white/red fairings as well. I have a damaged right side fairing and front wheel fender.

 

A good painter can match colors easily and can either paint the graphics on, or use vinyl graphics

 

Yea the hard parts findin decent used parts cheap... later ill buy a new set of fairings just the moneys low.. I hate bein a broke college kid....

 

Look on Ebay, its where I found my new plastics and it was about $380 with shipping and everything. I know $380 might sound like a lot but there are plenty of styles and colors and everything there and the plastics are really good looking. Just something to think about, and you might just be able to find your specific piece thats scratched/broke there

These are my new ones, everything is painted right and there arent any flaws anywhere. If youre going to go new plastics to match your old ones, it might be the best bet

 

Did all the holes line up good ive just seen a lot of bad stories from buyin stuff like that and what about the finish and stuff?

 

yeah the holes lined up good. There was one time that it was a little off and had to work it a little, it was the tail fairing by the seat, but it ended up being fine. Im actually really really surprised on how nice the paint is on them and how sturdy they are. I was worried about some cheap as* plastic but its all good. I could probably sell you my old plastics if youre interested too, they arent flawless but they arent bad. Either way though, the ebay ones are pretty nice, at least from the asian dude I bought mine from lol

the only thing is that where the front fairing connects to the side ones, there are no nuts on the fairing so you have to take them off of the old ones, which isnt a big deal really.

 

How much for the nose peice?

 

Or if the whole sets cheap and you aint to far ill try to get them
