Default Re: Track Fairing Advice

Have used both GSXR and BB Plastic fairings on the SV minitwin and in each case both initially fitted with an hour or two of adjusting race subframes to suit. Pickup points are just the same now as we use our old GSXR fairings when testing as they are quite heavy and robust and then swap to the lighter weight BB Plastics without any further adjustments for actual racing. The BB Plastics fairings are made to a high standard and I'm surprised problems have been reported as I know these guys will not allow dodgy quality out of the factory. We are often asked about fairings to use as our SV does look quite trick in the Fireblade booted set up from BB Plastics. I guess its up to personal choice then...........

Yeah around West Yorks, sure I have dealt with them for something way back... and a quick google reveals they don't make owt bike related.

Considering who BB plastics are/associate themselves with I would not deal with them. But I'm not going to comment on that too much suffice to say anyone interested why can look up mine and coxxys previous discussions about SDC performance.
