    FZR fairing and screen

    Quick question.....

    The fairing screen on the FZR is and aftermarket jobbie and it's cracked right through, does not quite fit and has one end broken off - in other words - it's gotta GO!

    I can get a genuine one from the USA for (US) $100 and can order all the screw / graphics etc as well

    OR

    I can try for a local aftermarket jobbie! Who makes em? Where can I get em from?? How much??

    Cheers

    Given that the local aftermarket screen for my Katana is $145 and the size of a Dinner Plate, I reckon the US one is the one to go for.

    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    Yep, that happened when some poor sod (who shall remain nameless) tried doing me a favour and pushed it up my extremely steep driveway for me to crash start.... Then someone else (who shall also remain nameless) dropped it in his parents driveway and cracked the screen. I was gonna replace it but they aren't cheap!

    On a side note, I never crashed the FZR! No, really!

    Good grief! Many more favours like that and it would have been beyond redemption.... With the luck you had with it mate it didn't need to fall down, the earth would have jumped up and whacked it!

    Nah! It does not look crashed anyplace...

    The local supplier is Visual Plastics Based in Hamilton.
    Yep $145 sounds about right--clear and tinted --Would look interesting with a double bubble or a deeper bubble

    i got a screen back in the day of that guy on TM as well. Can't complain about it, just a screen. You can mould perspex profesionaly, not sure how much it would be for a bike screen tho.
