I just bought a 96 gs500. it looks pretty damn good nekid but i would like to put fairings on it to give it more of a streetbike look. i have seen the specII fairings, i am not impressed with them, they look like they are 2 far forward or something and they dont have much of a bellypan. i like the look of the airtech but i have heard some pretty bad reviews. i have heard they r bad be missing parts and the parts you get dont always fit together properly. i googled it and those two were all i found. all the other fairing sites i found were in a differant language. is there any way to put the gs500f fairings on an e? i saw a pic of an e with some kind of 125 streetbike fairings, it looked good. so what are my options here? If i cant find a fairing kit i like i will but duel headlights on it, what is my best bet in that area. any kits that wont drain my wallet?
thanks,
calvin
Yup - go to a bike junkyard or post a request in the forsale forum for F fairings and fitments - if you get all the F brackets and such, it's pretty much a bolt-on job.
Headlights, same deal - bike junkyard
I suppose possibly also the 'bay, but be extra-careful - better to either deal locally where you can see what you are actually getting, or deal with someone here that's on regularly. Shipping fairing parts can be a problem (they need to be packed quite well to not break).
anything will fit if you take the time to install it properly
will it look great.....oppinions are like a$$holes

,,,,,says the man himself :laugh:
I've got most of an R6 bodywork set, except the left mid and lower fairing here if you want to go that route. plastics with no lights or brackets. picture a GS500 R6E conversion. THAT would be a head turner. PM me if ya want the plastics.
