What nose cone is this?

Post by BillingCBR »

Hi guys, found this on ebay, and didn't recognise the nosecone, can anyone I.D it for me please? Looks quite nice, and would consider one if (no, when) I buy another NC30 and one comes up cheap enough.

Bike looks familiar?

Looks like a homejob on a race fairing. The clue is that the headlight is not recessed, so basically just a hole cut in the fairing. Seems to work pretty well though. That'd be my tip anyway.

Its supposed to be a endurance? or suzuka nosecone - there are a few different versions but yeah, looks a bit home made. easily done with a nice sharp core drill! ha, ha!

well, I was at one point thinking very seriously of cutting the lip out of the r/h light on that nosecone I traded you, then clean it up and fibreglass it up, but have decided I'll probably just get a proper Suzuka one :)
