Can this be done?

I found this picture while looking at an American Website, would this be possible for my 1999 600?

Think it looks pretty cool, not sure if the whole fairing would fir, with the fairing lowers, etc! Any advice??

I think it only works if you wear black trousers, a blue shirt and a grey V neck, oh and a pair of nice shiny shoes.

Why did I get a off topic rating from boyles. How can it be off topic when I stated the bike mention looked wrong. Idiot.

When you said front end, I thought you meant forks and brakes and front wheel. Not fairing fercreissakes!

Take my advice. Get a Gixxer shock, and proper gixxer front end (IE running gear, not cosmetic crap) and put them on there. Then see how people are surprised by a 'commuter/retro/budget' bike in the twisties! Smile

{edit} and I doubt the lowers would fit. Sell the Bandit and Get an SV if you want a budget sportsbike. Gixxer fairings fit quite well on those! Smile {edit}

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.

Thats horrible. Completely out of place.

See now if you were talking about fitting the whole front end... EG USD Forks, Brakes etc then i would be interested.

Have thought about fitting an RGV250 front end, USD Forks, Brakes, Clipons etc to my GS500 many 'a time Laughing

Old Thread Alert!

The last post was made 20 years, 250 days ago. Instead of replying here, would creating a new thread be more useful?
