Re: front fairing alternatives?
yeh u can get lightweight fibreglass race fairings but they wont have cutouts for indicators and headlamp/s etc...

i bid on one a while back with a race single seat similar to the sp style and i got outbid by £2 lol

Re: front fairing alternatives?
There is a fairing available for the Firestorm ,which is very very like that fitted to an Sp1,i've posted the link to the company on here before ,....i'm buggered if i can find it now though.
Almost certain it was a French company,and the price was around 300 Euros.

Re: front fairing alternatives?
Trouble is, if I fitted one I would end up sitting in a quiet corner stroking it (the fairing obviously!!!
)
Did you check out the price list, bit rich for my liking. Cheap and nasty, that's me

Re: front fairing alternatives?
About £400 including the lights, not too bad.
If only I could drop mine, wreck the fairings, get the insurance payout and buy it back that might just do the job nicely.
Mind you, it's still got to be painted. Even rattle can satin black wouldn't look too rough on that, though.
And that central air inlet looks fairly easy to set up to feed into the airbox.....
Got me thinking, now...

It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.
