I know there are alot of threads for fairings but all I want is,
Where can I get good priced fairings with a good quality, painted or unpainted, thats irrelevant ABS is fine, good price of glass would be good but it depends on the shipping value and how they package it.
I had a low slide today and its caused alot of damage up the brake side of the bike and the fairings needed replacing on the other side from the previous owner so I might as well do the entire bike.
Has anyone purchased from any of the ebay sellers? if so how did you get on and can you provide pictures or a link to the seller or anything like this, Cheers guys

send a mail to this guy fairingkit@live.com tell him what you are after and you are a member on 400gb
i am in negotiation with him for a cheap kit that i can review and get some detailed images of flaws and all.
he is well regarded in the NSR250 world with good kits on offer for the right prices.

Keep me posted how you get on pls, or better still CC me in on the mails. paul@crm250.com

My other Q is, has anyone used or seen first hand those K Conversion fairings? I like the tyga ones that look the same clearly these are a knock off of the Tyga kit, but do they fit and look the part? everything even and straight and symmetrical? nothing fucks me off more than imperfection on any of my bikes, I notice the smallest knicks haha

Stay away from K conversions then..

If you want perfect, you need OEM

Ok, i have purchased a set of NC35 fairings based upton the RR scheme.
I hope to have them here within 3 weeks, and i will do a full review of them.
I have agreed with the maker he will also be privy to the review and can have some input and respond to questions.
For the record, i am buying these as a customer, they are not freebies or gifts, so once i am done with them, will be passed on at cost if anyone wants them or shoved onto ebay at a buy now.

I am curious to know for myself how these kits are compared to the poor brittle stuff a couple of years ago. All part of the service for 400greybike ;-)

Awesome, could you PM a link to the review once you do it? Im not particularly active on this forum, would like to know the overall cost, and the outcome etc.
Im still contemplating a few other options such as a suzuka styled front kit, leaving me needing a tail and belly pan.
a full cheap decent set would be better though ;)

I'll be interested to see these fairings look paul, more so how close to the OE panels they get the colours and design.
