My lower fairings have just arrived but they havent got any brackets and one little black attachment for the front is missing. Desperate to get them on but cant find a bracket kit anywhere! Can i make my own maybe? Any replys greatly appreciated. :D

Just gave em a call and they said they cant help because the fairings are not original suzuki shape. Bit stuffed now. They cost me 150! Cable ties maybe :rolleyes:

Contact the company that manufactured the Lowers (you don't say which ones you've got) or the seller.

If you have a Curvy then the lowers were made for Suzuki by this company in Holland.

Bracket kits are available, as I asked them, not sure about the fake black air scoop, but I'm guessing they could find you one, although they are not esential, unlike the brackets.

Not sure on the price, just send them an email

I may be buying a new set of fairings with brackets. If so you are welcome to my old mountings. A bit old and rusty but they are structuraly sound and are hidden anyway. Or if you're bothered you could hammerite them.

PM me early next week, I should know the crack by then

I am pretty sure i have a bracket set for the curvy.

Think it consists of the long bar that goes in front/across the radiator then two brackets that attach near the footrests.

I'll have a root around and see if i can find them. No idea how much they're worth though. Make me a sensible offer and they're yours...

Sounds promising! The fairing has a hole just below where the bolt in the top fairing is. (near your knee cap when riding) Nothing on the frame seems to line up. :smt120

I'll take a look at my bike and let you know if it stops raining outside.

Can take some photos if i'm feeling generous too. :smt056

None of the holes in the fairing line up with the frame bolts, all the brackets have offset fixings for the fairing.

So you'll have an interesting time sorting out this little jigsaw puzzle, if you get a 2nd hand set :p
