Woo Hoo !! I have mixed feelings about the fairing, but I have mixed feelings about a lot of things. I think a more streamlined seat would set it off better. Nice score !

Never seen one of those before I think. I like the blue.

I like it. It looks fast. Might look faster without the lowers on it, though.

i reconize it as a CBX fairing. looks like the one that i started with when i built the one on CYBORG. i too think the lowers could be fitted better. but it does show someone with a good imagination. ohhhh wait a minute. sounds like a judge at a bike show. the bike is interesting. and i give it high marks, because i know how difficult it is to mount that fairing, and get it to look right

I would have to look but I think the lowers were pulled loose and need a little work

Hey nakedtob,

Going to try and resurrect an old thread... Any chance you could post a pic or two (from the inside) on how that fairing was mounted?

TIA
