Yeah I agree - not overley keen on the vinyls but they've put a load of effort and cash into this project. You can tell it's his pride and joy the bikes inside his home :lol: I'd never be able to convince my other half to do that!

Looks odd - fairing looks too low.

as you can tell with most of these done they havnt spent much time to get things to sit right on the bike . fairings to low and to forword , tail to high at the back and big gaps around the tank . if they spent more time and do a better job of fitting them it would look a lot better / as you will see when ive done mine :grin: :peace:

i agree it does look as if it has been fitted in a weekend. the front end is far to low over the wheel and gaps around the rear fairing through to the tank. not sure on the low slung exhaust, still looks good though anyone who can try something different gets a thumbs up from me!

i have been working out with my vfr i have spent over 75 hours working on getting the fairing to fit properly and i am still not fully happy. for these things to look good a lot of effort is required.
