Title: gs500f fairings after naked conversion
Post by: chilloutdamnit on March 26, 2011, 05:49:25 PM
Recently did a naked conversion and I have all the fairings from the bike. I also have mirrors (in fair condition) The headlight is not for sale as it's already on my bike.

To see all the pictures check this link: http://imgur.com/a/oMBEK#36cRn (http://imgur.com/a/oMBEK#36cRn)

The left and right fairings are in fair condition (the bike was dropped at low speeds). The front fairing is in great condition.

Also, how the heck do you ship fairings to someone?

I'd be willing to let the whole set go for $200 + shipping (OBO). On that note, does anyone know how to ship fairings?

In really big boxes. Where are you located? Somebody local may want to buy them.

Yeah I wouldn't mind purchasing depending on location; I hate my gray colour scheme.

You can ship the pieces in a large box with plenty of light packing material (packaging peanuts for example). UPS typically has cheap rates on large items.

Looks awesome, I'm tempted to do it myself - how does it go in the wind & rain?

You feel every gust of wind and every drop of rain.

Box them up, weigh it, and then go to the usps and fedex websites and type in the measurements. They'll tell you exactly how much it should cost. I take small packages to the post office, and big ones to fedex. I don't ever mess with ups, they usually seem to be way higher than the other 2. With fedex you benefit from boxing things up in as small of boxes as you can, don't leave any wasted space because you'll pay for it. I've shipped whole bicycles for $17 and I've shipped whole bicycles for $50, just gotta make sure you trim the box down.

Did you have to do anything to any of the wires and what not if you kept the old headlight?
