    Have fitted sets to 3 bikes and not hard at all mate best advice I can give is to take your time and do the large flat bits first to give you an idea of how it goes on also loads of videos on you tube.

    fitted fairing last night and this mornig, will be replacing most of the bolts too (when they finally arrive) and also need to drill out the holes for my Crash bungs and fit my stomp grips, but thought I would take some picture first to show it looks :)

    It went on quite well apart from the usual filing out of holes and getting rid of the plastic flashing ;)

    Looks smart, must be a good supplier, just don't ride directly behind people on dirty roads, Chinese fairings are well known for having holes blown through them by stones

    Defo one of the best replica fairings I've seen

    Absolutely stunning simon. Who's the supplier?

    I've gone one of those pointy bolts for marking the crash bung hole if you need one.

    Simon do the fairing seem decent quality to you. Just wondering if the stories of thin plastic and easy damage are true.

    Cheers Simon. Good to know as I'm getting some soon and if they'd been so easily damaged I might not have bothered.
