Anyone got any experience with replacement fibreglass fairings? Can you tell the difference once the bikes painted? Do they crack? There seems to be a market for them and I can't find a decent 2nd hand original for my '97 ZX9.

 

FIBERGLASS FENDERS ON A SHOW BIKE YES, ON A STUNT BIKE OR SOMETHING THAT IS ACTUALLY GOING TO BE RIDDEN- NO, THE VIBRATION WILL CAUSE THEM TO CRACK AND THE FIRST TIME YOU DROP THE BIKE THERE GOING TO SHATTER. SOMEBODY NEEDS TO COME UP WITH PLEXIGLASS FENDERS AND BODY COMPONENTS. THAT WAY YOU NEVER REALLY HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT ANYTHING UNLESS YOU GO DOWN EXTREMELY HARD.THATS MY

 

Be cool if they were Lexan. That ****'s indestructable

 

I took my sharkskin and after a whole season of rashed..broken tabs...several pieces....I took it and got it sprayed w/ Line X.... Very tough. Not pretty..but I don't care

 

As long as it works go for it
