Hi All,

Well my lovely fzr got knocked over smashed all the lower R/H fairing.

I have been looking for weeks/months for a decent secondhand replacement but had no luck.

Anyway I came across this site (hope this mods dont mind) They are in honk kong and are selling what look like good copies of my fzr fairings for something like £300 all in.

Anyone bought/heard about these guys before ?

Cheers,

Cameron

If their based in Hong Kong or any other far eastern misty place then they are more than likely copies, quality will be questionable and you will almost certainly need to do some filing and modifying to get them to fit.

Just what I've learned from previous situations. Karma

Hi pal,

Yeah I thought this would be the case shame really as they would be ace if it was a perfect fit, from what I have gatherd it depends on which employee makes them if that makes sense ?

Anyway cheers for info

Cameron

There are some people on here that have bought fairings from China/Hong Kong and I don't remember too many horror stories being bandied about.

I have no doubt they will fit, they are made for the bike at the end of the day, just may take a bit of filing and whatnot
