Title: Upper fairing?
Post by: SeqArtMark on September 12, 2007, 11:24:15 PM
Hey all,

I don't post here much since I don't have a bike yet but I DO have a couple of questions about the GS500f.  I did a search and found the thread about the Brazilian company that produces an awesome fairing kit for the e model (I believe).  First of all, has anyone actually ordered the kit and if so what's the verdict?  Were they hard to install?  Are they painted out of the box or do you have to arrange for that as well?  And finally, are they exclusive to the e model or can you use them for the f model as well?

I'd prefer to hear from someone in the states but any help is much appreciated.  Thanks.

I've got one on its way right now and once winter rolls around it'll be the first project.  I'm guessing about a weekends worth of work.  It'll work for the F as well as the E models.  I've just got the front but you can get the rear plus undertail and hugger.  I just ordered whatever color, since I'll be repainting this winter anyhow but they'll match your paint from what I'm told.  Once it gets here I'll tell you what I think of it.
