Default Would these fit a fully faired curvy?

Hi Guys (and gals ),

I've been needing to get a set of crash bungs for a while (since I got the bike in May )
I've seen these on eBay and was wondering if they'd fit a curvy s with lowers, without needing to cut the fairings.(they do say faired in the description, but I'm not sure if that is referring to the bikini fairing or lowers)

Thanks in advance,
Josh

PS: If this is in the wrong section can one of the mods move it please

Yes they will fit, but you will have to do a little bit of trimming of the lower fairing like this guy did to fit his JHS bungs.

Cheers DD for the very quick and helpful reply
Do you know which are the ones where you don't have to cut the fairings?
New model R&Gs?

New style R & G's are the only model of bungs that mean you dont have to cut the lower fairing.

I suppose you'd recommend the motosliders then (going by your sig at least)? People on here seem to rate them highly (more so than R&Gs).
I just don't like the idea of cutting my lowers (in case I make a hash of it)
