Lower Fairing Catching After GSXR Fork Swap
Hey peeps,
After thinking I'd 'finally' sorted everything with my bike after the accident, I got around to putting on the lower fairing this evening, only to find that the bolts on the Lower Yolk catch (in a 'scrape-twang' fashion) on the top bits of the Lower Fairing (the bits that are hidden behind the Upper Fairing). So I'm guessing other people have had this problem after a front-end swap, so I thought I'd see what other people have done, as I'd hope that others have come up with more ingenious methods of stopping it catching, rather than attacking it with the hack-saw Any suggestions aside the hack-saw?

Re: Lower Fairing Catching After GSXR Fork Swap
Well, you could use a file/rasp, but it will take you longer! Unfortunately the only way is with a hacksaw. Might take a few pics tomogs to show you how much you need to take off, but it aint much and is completely hidden when you put the top fairing etc on. If you're in Manc city centre tomogs I could meet up and show you.
