not sure where this should go, but I know there's loads of which crash bung threads, but I am getting more and more into the cornering aspect of riding, I am a total new rider to sports bikes, I had my trusty 125 since October last year, and have just about worked out mine and it's limits when riding normally, but am very skeptical about sliding down the road and busting my nice pretty fairings if i corner too hard and come off, so:

Honda NS125 1990 fully faired, does anybody know where crash bungs would fit on her and which one's to buy, my budget is aimed at some cheap one's for now(I know dear one's first til i get used to 'em) til i can really afford to splash out on some fairing saving ones.

Here's a couple of google pics to see where they might go Thumbs Up

Not sure you can get them.

R&G do make them for the NSR. You could see if you could get some custom made.

However, fairings should be quite cheap for the NS, so I wouldn't worry too much Smile.

Why pay for "cheap ones" when they wont do the job? The only time you will get used to them is when the bike is on its side and its too late then.

I suspect your fairing protection will cost more than replacement fairings.

Also, a lot of crash bungs can damage fairings anyway.

And if he had said the opposite, people would be saying "so what makes you so good then" Smile.
