Or buy yourself a low mileage 08 bike for £6k or less, pick up the phone to me (or anyone else for that matter) and get the wheels , fairings, airtubes and headlight. Flog your 08 gear, and for not much more than £6.5k you got the 2013 look for a fraction of the price. That was my plan but plans change eh.
My 08 fairings are smashed so there was no selling them... The Mrs was out at work today so I took them out the box to "check" them The plastic quality appears top notch, as thick and flexible as the stock fairings. The paint quality isn't perfect but my bike never has been or will be a show bike... The fitment... Well that will happen around 8am on Christmas morning
http://www.fairingplus.com/absfairings/honda-fairings/cbr1000rr-fairings.html?year=57 Well testing the customer service today .... found one of the side fairings has cracked lacquer and crack plastic Got an initial reply of $59 Postage to which a swift NO was dealt and they have said they will post anyway ... they have asked for a full picture so they know what to send .... update to follow!
You been peaking at the christmas presents again Fletch!! They do look like nice quality for the money!! Wish these companys would take a mould of a track fibreglass fairing and produce it in plastic! Would love a nicely finished plastic race fairing on my bike
The only thing I would add is that non oe fairings are heavier and are not as flexible as genuine.The fairing tabs are brittle and can break.Make sure a garage knows that to take care when pulling the belly pan off.Other than that they are a great.
Had them all out the box and they look superb... Gave some of the bits a right good flex and bend and they seem pretty plyable. The air tubes are fibre glass but that is the only part that is Couple of bits of damage but nothing serious... Paint rub in places nobody is going to see (thankfully) I'll make comment on an email to them but only want the cracked side fairing replaced
what year mate? auctmarts did one for me a couple of years ago for my 07 blade….. if you don't ask you don't get… the raceseat was pants by the way, I ended up gutting it
Well my advice to any body who was looking at these is ... Don't Long post explaining why when i get time!
Not true you can take the abs module out and put single hoses on and will run fine separate from acu just done it on 600
Im interested to hear why this all went tits up, i wouldn't mind converting mine in the future. Black is a pain in the ass to keep clean and it shows millions of fibre scratches
Yup also interested, I looked on their website and I'm presuming with it being a American company the customer service is only good if you live in America ?
