New Fairings On For Some Pics

Post by Tyrant »

My bike was a lovely original blue, but the fairings were rough and stuck together with lumps of fibreglass paste. I couldn't resist going for a new colour on these new genuine fairings. Haven't found decals for them yet but I want original looking Kawasaki, KABTL and ZXR400 stickers made up to look as original as possible. I still need to strip it down for powder coating and general tidy up of the whole thing but for now I can enjoy the summer on it.

:excited

It's a white pearl (and I tidied up the generator cover whilst doing an oil change)

wow that really is gorgeous mate!
If it's broke spray it with WD40, if it's still broke spray it again and leave it over night, if it's still broke, bin it.

Cheers!
They were professionally sprayed by a friend so it was very reasonable and I picked up the fairings from Baz for a fair price. I have a few fairing bits lying around now if anyone is after spares?

Cheers guys - The paint has made a huge difference but I've still got a big (very big!) list of jobs left to do to get it how I want.
