Hi all anyone got any advice on after market fairings where to buy from and pics if possible not for track just for the road 08 blade,or has anyone got a full kit for sale thanks in advance .
Auctmarts are pretty good. Loads of designs to choose from. You can get a full set of painted fairings for about £300. I believe if you get in touch with them they can also do paint schemes to your own design as well. There are lots of mixed reviews on the net about aftermarket fairings but for the price you can't go wrong. I'd use Auctmarts again if I need to replace my current set.
There was another thread about it on here where the guy recommended "extreme fairings" website for the price and quality. Have a look as there are many designs there
There is always an issue in these areas but with some effort the guys said it works at the end. I would personally invest in some proper ones (not silly money) and hope for the best. Avoid the cheap ones cause you never know. I have read that they were some issues with the colour
performance bikes mag did a review of auctmart fairings a few years ago,from what i remember they said the paint wasnt quite upto yamaha standards( it was a R1) but was good,and a little drilling on some mounting points.......when asked would they buy another set ,the answer was yes
I think people just have to be realistic when they're buying the aftermarket stuff. You're getting a full set of fairings at a fraction of the cost of OE kit so have to expect that the finish might not be as good as genuine items, but I think the quality they turn out for the price is very good.
My son put a set of Chinese injection moulded bodywork on his RR5 18 months ago, happy with what we got for the money but a number of fastening points have given up and the belly pan left side cracked through. Fortunately we are able to make repairs ourselves but as i said for the money no complaints.
