are their several different styles of Silhouette noses? cos vipers looks very different. I dont like the more raked forward flat looking noses but I really like vipers and dm's rvf one.

Yes, I think mine must be an older one. Mine is narrower than Rhory's and doesn't have the RVF vent holes either.

wow that looks so nice!!
major improvement over the original.
That is lovely although I think that is a CBR250 not the 400. Wonder if I could adjust it to fit the CBR400? Any thoughts? As I see they still sell them for the CBR250

No idea. When I lived in Japan I could get one straight from silhouette. You could probably make one from lexan or some other material.

Still available from silhouette, stupidly expensive tho. Ive tried making some but it aint easy due to the contours needed.
