a zxr400 and an rs250 are two completely different bikes.

will the fairings fit...no

can they be made to fix...probably

will it be worth it...probably not

hint, if you want something that looks like an rs250...buy an rs250...

RS250 will be way too narrow for the ZXR400 , the ZXR400 is quite wide at certain points , and is not the easiest of bikes to fit different fairings from another model onto.

shocking

A good point well made, I love the fact my ZXR looks just like a ZXR, makes me smile just looking at her.

The fairing on my bike are designed to fit Rs 250 aprilia but hey I liked them so I made them fit,

Any thing can be made to fit just how much effort you want to make them fit.

Me personally I enjoy the challenge of the project and to keep me sanity during the winter months :tease

if its honda rs 250 bodywork your after fitting it will be a major headache as you will need to widen it underneath substantially you will also need to cut a portion out of the middle in between the fairing and bellypan, you will have to many issues for this fairing in my opinion

Super thanks to the guys who answer my question with out being bell ends lol reason we want to face lift the zxr is because we want to inc more sponsors and apply a fresh look to this bike. I think for such a great bike it's been left behind from other models getting body kits. Iv seen your moto 3 type zxr and pal it's amazing. Something we could make a business out of if we could copy it (50/50)

Other models require body kits maybe, ZXR was and still is shitloads better looking than anything similar, as one of the bellends :smt010 I might suggest a nice respray job.
Welcome

I joined this to find out knowledge, first and formost I was the one that asked a question about fairings as wanted to know if there was an option to update my bike? In response if you read above I gained sarcastic response such as " if you want a Rs 250 looking zxr buy a Rs 250 ? Now wether or not its a flying start or not it was not me that started that and in response yer I think logically that if you have nothin good to say you don't say it. I have explained why we need to update it and if people respond that way then yer I'd say bellend to there face. I came her to pick your knowledge. And share info not be welcomed to being treated like a nobber. I' been a biker all my life and run race bikes and in all my days iv not meet fellow bikers that have not wanted to help.. Or kick off over someone wanting to custom there bike? Cracking start yes your right? :smt013

And my response "bellend" was aimed at one not all. Any one that thought or read as all I apologise
