New tail unit - Ducati or CBR100 ?

Post by PARUS » Sun Aug 08, 2010 9:41 pm

Planning to change tail unit of the my NC29. I was planning to fit tail from CBR1000 2008 firstly, but currently checked and looks like cbr tail will be too thin compare with other fairing. So, maybe Ducati 1098 tail will be better. Any opinion ?

Wow that looks really smart...i wonder how hard the 1000rr tail peice is to fit??...i have a 03 600rr tail but it looks a little big for my NC23.Might have a go with the 1000rr if its not too hard.

That looks great, but the nose looks a wee bit high.... I have 2003/4 CBR600RR seat unit on mine, but found it a bit wide, so I cut 2" out the middle, joined up again and now it looks just about right, well I think so .. :) ... Col

PARUS! You find all the coolest things! I was thinking about doing something like that but for a CBR600 F2 track bike I use. AH! The Fireblades look so good. That bike looked so good.
