Hi Guys

put my fairing back on tonight after a spill and one of the steel fairing brackets that the crash bungs screw into snapped when i was tried to fit it. I just wondered if anyone had one for sale or if you know where I can get hold of one. All help and advice much appreciated.

I have some but relecutant to let go incase I get my fairings back on, I got mine from someone breaking a fitting kit which is very rare nowadays to even find a fitting kit let alone someone who is breaking it.

the R&G brackets are best because there is no way in hell they can bend lol,
here is a pic of mine with the brackets, they are big chunks of metal lol,

I'll see if I can find them... they are made out of crap metal and R&G would be a lot better.... as Nobbylad has some forsale... soon.

I've dug mine out and on inspection the T item the right hand bracket needs welding as there is a crack in it.... Sorry. but I'm not happy with it.

.... if someone is offering you a R&G kit at a good price mate you will be silly to let it go.. these cheesium fairing brackets are pants and a new one will only break the next time you go down putting you back in the same position :rolleyes:

I have the R&G bracket set for a faired pointy. It is missing the right crash bung and needs whats left of the bolt removing from the right bracket.
It could be sold if a nice offer was received.......:)

Yeah I agree that the R ^ G are the way ahead as long as I can get the brackets too as thats the bit I'm really in need of.

Thats the ticket! Well hopefully I have dibs on NobbyLads kit. Why dont Suzuki make something to this standard as OEM???? Surely the customer deserves the best and the mass produced cost must be comparible?
