Default Lower fairings fit issues.

Hi all. Ive got a K3 pointy. On looking from the back of the bike, the offside fairing looks in a natural position, whereas the nearside sticks out further from the frame. A good 40mm and I can't see any way to adjust it. I got crash bungs fitted, but dont think the removal will result in success. Any suggestions/help greatly appreciated.

could be the bracket at the top where it joins onto the nosecone, one side bent inwards and one bent out maybe? is it noticable that its the top or the bottom or seem to look like both so the whole thing is sticking out? Take a few pics if possible, my top brackets are both bent inwards so with full fairing on it was a very tight fit and resulted in the fairing breaking

The nosecone bracket that the full fairing also gets screwed onto on the right hand side if you are sitting on the bike is bent inwards, and the otehr side looks like its bent the other way. perhaps pushing the fairing out. If not then yeh I'd say the left hand side fairing is bent. Are there definaitely brackets on both sides for the crash bungs or are they just attached to the fairing?

Deffo brackets on both sides that the bungs sit into and they look fine. Im guessing there's other brackets elsewhere that are probably bent?

the very top ones that the nosecone and full fairings are joint to, but I can't imagine it making it look that uneven, the right hand side one is like mine, to far inwards so it needs bent out abit so there is an even gap between the nosecone and frame, don't know exactly what the gap is as mines wrong

Thanks. I think I'll take it to local bike shop at the weekend, get them to
Have a look. Don't think it's gonna be too much of a tricky fix
