You are both correct, it is a Tyga fairing made to replicate the RC211V and designed to fit on either a RVF400 NC35 or the VFR400 NC30.

It doesn't suit the bike well, it matches the seat unit and tank a bit but they themselves don't match the frame.

I love the single sided swing arm. Would love to get my SV looking like that (different plastics though).

Looks like the swingarm was from a VFR750, as required least modding.

How much would a swing arm like that cost (not taking into account the exhausts etc- I'd rather see twin underseat than the MV pipes, myself). Had a quick scoot about, but could find nothing. I guess I'd need the wheel too...

Honda VFR750 (non-RC30) swingarm fits in with less hassle, the RC30 swingram used above is a better looking one but requires a bit more work.

Cool. Cheers Dave.

And the wheel would have to be specific for a single sided too, I guess?

What's the odds of getting one in good nick from a breaker's yard? Based on the usual verbal stat that bikes more often go down on the right (as told every time I've asked about fairings...).

Aye, for simplicity.
