Default Pointy lower fairings fitting

A friend has bought a second hand (but unused) set of lower fairings for his 2007 SV.
They came with an incomplete fitting kit, and a couple of bit’s that aren’t shown on the contents picture of the instructions.
The bits not shown on the instructions are the 2 brackets, which I think attach to the radiator.

Anyone have a picture of how the fitting kit fits under the fairing, or can say what bits are missing.
Thanks
Mike

This is one of mine (2005 K5). I'm pretty sure the K5+ share the same radiator so will use the same mounting brackets, but the K3/K4 have a wider radiator so don't use/need them. Don't take that as fact, just something I recall reading. Anyway, pictures...





Oh and I'd get some crash bungs which replace the OEM main brackets... they snap too easily if you have the OEM bungs on them:

there are a lot of parts missing from that kit.

faring bolts and spacers
radiator u brackets like above (there are 2 types on for K3 and one for K3>)
bottom to frame/engine brackets
main bracket bolts to hold the large discs in place
side to side fitting bridge (black plastic part with 4 holes) plastic pop rivets.

what you dont need are the funny looking brackets in the picture as they are for the nosecone and your bike will already have them.

Isn't that showing in the picture(with 2 of the rivets already in it)?

Anyone want to swap for the right ones?
Thanks,Mike

If you're just after them, get down to B&Q and get some strip ally and then make them yourself, dead easy.
