Hi everyone, I'm new here and just bought my first big bike.
I'm currently looking for a standard fairing kit for a 1996 thundercat. Primed and unpainted or good condition. I'm not too picky about colours at the moment but looking for a full kit. New or used.

With the current crisis I can't seem to find any. There are a few in China or Australia but don't think they'll come for a while...
The fairings I currently have, have a side that is completely snapped in half.
So I'm looking for something in the UK, eBay and Amazon have been a little unhelpful.

If anyone knows of any for sale or a company still operating that may have them please let me know.

I've no idea of the quality but these guys weren't hard to find.

Having refurbished my '99 ZX6R I can say that good front and side fairings for old bikes will never be cheap.

I did get a response from someone on eBay.
"hi, many flights stop effected by the current crises around the world . but we do have a special shipping way that can send it out but may meet a bit delay (20-30 days ) to arrive at UK . and this fairing set also need order from the factory with 12 days for the production .
can you wait for it ?"

That's on this link https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/333382121905


Does anyone if ABS plastic made in china are good fairings? I've heard the fairings from China aren't always great.
