Hi All,
I am looking at buying a new set of fairings for my RC30. (The original ones have been patched too many times by people who didn't know how, before I got it:innocent: )
Has anyone seen or owned a bike with fairings by "Just Fairings" in Hamilton, or Tyga fairings as sold by Ds Racing?
If so, what did you think of them quality wise?

Cheers

you looked at the TYGA website. I have purchased two things direct from them, it is cheaper that way and they have very fast service.

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm aaah seeee thurrrrrrdy (said like Homer checking out an unobtainable donut)


I don't care how tatty the fairings are that's a seriously niiiiice ride, mate.
I don't suppose you are in dire need of a kidney...or an unused testicle by any chance? I can supply the former no problem whatsoever but I'll have to see my missus about the latter, she keeps 'em in a jar for safe keeping.......

I'm guessing you've been on the net and checked out www.durbahn.de? The guy creates very sexy gear (thinking outside the square) for a few select bikes but he cut his teeth with RC30's. Just beeeyooteeful......

Ive just completed a full tyga performance cbr250rr, Went with the whole kit. I found them to be an excellent product with great quality and no modification needed to make fit properly!!

they looked mint, the only one little gripe i had was the headlight kit that came with it was a bit gutless

as far as fairings go tho, there an excellent option

Pure Bike Porn and all hand crafted by Thorsten Durbahn. Not just aesthetics he's fitted a lightweight starter motor, lighweight alternator, fuel injection, carbon fibre everything and a million other touches of brilliance to make a work of art that weighs 161.5kg's FULL OF FUEL (less than 150kg dry), and has 140hp.

Thanks for the replies,
My poor old RC has had a sorry life,
It was bought as an insurance rightoff in Blenheim. The dude who owned had taken it down to the Brass Monkey, but tried to T-bone a truck in Picton on his way home to Auckland. Que mental picture of steering head torn off frame:gob: OUCH!!
Mate of mine bought it at the auction, and used to work for HRC Australia, so made some calls, new frame and some other bits, game on.
His wife said he had too many toys. I didn't have a wife, so I bought another toy.
I got shifted to AK with work, and took it to a club dyno day. Bummer, just on 80 ponies, and lots of smoke.
Bores were tapered and oval. Rebore time. It now has oversize racekit pistons, a flow job on the heads and kitted carbs. Should be good for 120ish.
Still looking for some kit radiators, but the engine is pretty much done.
Now all I need to sort is the body work, and a 17 rear rim.

Cheers MRPEANUt, I 'll PM you I get back after Xmas. Love that tardme site.
Can't see what they(trademe) are complaining about.

I agree, Thorsten has done some amazing things to his bikes, and has some pretty neat bits of kit for sale. I wish I had found about his site when I first started this whole rebuild.

Ouch, the poor thing HAS had a sad and sorry time...but if ever there was bike worth resurrecting then this is it.
Good luck mate, I'm sure it'll be worth it in the end, and your mate will be green with envy...along with the rest of us!
