Re: New tyga plastics, what do I need?
go for a mito tail with that front, iv seen the tyga rcv taill on the spark from before an i didnt like it, looks too unstandard in my opinion, but the mito will fit the styling well

I want a tyga tail to get the same contour and colour of the fairings.

you can paint the mito tail and iv seen pic of a mito tail on an nc35 (which the spark is based on but with different lights) and it looks really good, suits the lines far better than a modern rcv tail does, but then each to there own

I don't want to paint them in the beginning.

trust me mate do, they coming in white but it just a primer and looks really... well unfinished...
even if you only do like a base layer of the colour you want (black whatever) it will look far better

I know it will only be primed, I'm fine with that as a beginning, I will be travelling alot, carrying bags etc. so I don't really care about paint.

Re: New tyga plastics, what do I need?
Ok, so fairings now on. So next.
Where the upper and lower fairings meet, there'd usually be some quickscrew thingies. But as the tygas don't have any lugs for this, it's not possible.
How did you go about it?

why bother with at all if you not gonna give a fcuk about the finish!! defeats purpose of getting aftermarket "fancy" stuff just to make it look like a dogs dinner?!?Lasse wrote:I know it will only be primed, I'm fine with that as a beginning, I will be travelling alot, carrying bags etc. so I don't really care about paint.

Re: New tyga plastics, what do I need?
i assume you mean in the beginning bit...
so your not gonna be using the bike the way you where when the stuff gets painted?
then why not just roll with it the way it is, then when it wont get a battering get it sprayed and put on.
surely making it look well and the let it take a hammering is going to work out costly and annoying?
