Well smart. Is that a Silhouette NC35 top fairing?

Yep, I think it wears the seed design well. It has a silver cover for the right and a green lense for the left.

Great stuff, I think that's going to look wicked

Edit


Excuse my ignorance but can you use the standard nc35 headlights with the silhouette fairing or do you have to use nc30 lights?

Silhouette make fairings for each bike to retain the original headlight, zippys is a rvf nosecone so a rvf light will fit.

Really? The apertures are round, and there's a big lip on the inside! Does the stock unit have to be butchered to fit in this top fairing? Looks absolutely fantastic, but I just don't see how the stock headlights would fit....

Yep they fit fine i had the nosecone on my bike previously, the lip on the inside is shaped to fit the RVF headlight. The lip on the NC30 silhouette nosecones are even deeper, i'll get a pic later when im in the garage.

Yes the mids and lowers are original. It's just the nosecone and tail unit that are aftermarket.
