Hi there,
I'm really interested in doing something similar on my nc23,
where did u get the track fairings from? I'm looking at mounting a projector
style headlight in the air intake and using it on the road too.
Cheers

Thats great thanks,

Il let you know what Options I come up with for a headlight.

I might be doing a different tail unit so that I can keep the standard subframe.

trs will do the nose and side fairings for £140.

Im just looking at headlight options, I was thinking maybe a single projector headlight or something like this:
http://www.4-motorcycles.co.uk/acatalog ... ights.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

adapted to fit the central air intake.

did you have any problems with the clocks clearing the fairing? or handlebar movement?
