    Hi, I've got 2 like new nose cones for the 08-11 blades.....One is plain winning red and the other is the HRC in red white and black. Are these what you are looking for?

    PS - why do they break so easily? Is it crappy aftermarket screens or something in the process of putting it all back together?

    No picture here as its in the loft...its the same as this one:

    Bike Trend: First pics: 2009 Honda Fireblade CBR1000RR

    FWIW i think the panels on the 2012 look a bit more substantial, particularly around that the nose cone area. hopefully that'll be the end of that issue!
