Plastics, bodywork, fairings. My attention was taken by this at the beginning as the bike was missing the front fairings. So I managed to source a set of fairings from a chap on the old TZR forum, forgive me I cant give full credit as it was so long ago, but I was very lucky to get them. They were used and needed some attention the lowers for example had the hinges stuck.
So I drilled them out.
Just need to sort out some form of replacement.
The lowers had a little damage on them.
But the upper was good.
But overall they needed a respray. So I had them done at the same time as the tank. But I needed some fairing stickers and no one did the 2MA set that the bike should have. So Corf from the old TZR site made some copies from the fairings that I had, and they are available on eBay.
However I ran in to some trouble when putting them on they bubbled, and so did the replacements. Could not explain why, they guys putting them on had done it plenty of times before and the stickers supplied were the same as others had used. Just a strange thing. No criticism of the stickers, but I'm not using them for a little colour issue. If you are doing the full bike they are fine but the red that Yamaha used has a little orange in it and if you have a pair of new rear panels they wont match. So I had to source a set of new Yamaha stickers also, but I think it will be worth it in the end.
The new rear panels didn't come with the foam inserts that the 2MA has in place of the indicators. Luckily the original panels still had them in.
So I swapped them over. They are actually 1KT panels so had some extra foam that I needed to remove to fit the foam I wanted, but with a little hot glue they went in.
I also put the foam dampers on the inside of the front fairing that the headlight goes against.
Next is to get the plastic on the bike. Oh and sort the petrol tank out.
