So I found that glue for pvc piping works really well for glueing fairings back together. But you do have to use the prep stuff first

Get yourself a Photobucket acct. It'll make posting pics easier.

Default I'm back!!!

Ok so long story short. I gave my cbr 1000 f to my son during a move from PHX to Austin TX. He did get it running and within an hour or so of running the starter started to make noise. I moved on but I'm trading a BMW 750 for an abandoned CBR1100xx so I will see anyone over on that forum
