What cbr fairing for my nc23 triarm

Post by gromit » Sun Jan 13, 2013 11:46 am

Right, been a while since ive been on here lads, and decided to take the 23 from out of hybernation, so far ive managed to get hold of a whole cbr600 front end, and swing arm and wheel, that ive fitted with no probs, and a 2010 complete rear subframe and plastics from a Aprillia 125, allowing me to fit the exhaust under the seat, now im stuck on front and side fairing panels,,, cant decide what to fit, I have searched a few topics on here, and 03-04 rr looks good, so does the 07 rr, I take it when you guys got these to fit you also got the ram air tubes, headlights and front subframe from the same bike and just modified it to fit. and does the tank cover from the rr, fits straight over the 400 tank or will I need a rr tank as well. ?? ;) ;)

Why not just fit the 23 bodywork? It won't look too modern for the age of bike then. Although the Aprilia rear end will probably look out of place anyway.
Conventional wisdom says to know your limits. To know your limits you need to find them first. Finding your limits generally involves getting in over your head and hoping you live long enough to benefit from the experience. That's the fun part.

Hi mate, thanks for the reply, I was looking into waking up the bodywork and making it a bit more modern, Ive still got all the origional panels and rear subframe so i can put it back to standard at a later date, ive seen a few mods on here and they do look good hence the plastics upgrade, its just a case of finding out the more tech side rather than the basics, ive got a full workshop to carry out the mod, just need to know

Gromit, have you considered R6 bodywork then? Much sexier than the CBR600 clothes :mrgreen:
