auldy Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Sorry Guys, the R90s fairing does nothing for me. I bought an original Scura Fairing in a kit from the dealer for $350 Australian. Painted it in 2 pak black gloss, the original and the best. Cheers Auldy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soloNH Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 There is a place in Arizona that does "streetfighter" fairings. Lots of them are really weird but there are a couple that might work. Please don't hold it against me...Just do a search for "Wild hair accessories" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soloNH Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 I've never been able to do anything about the hair but the worst part has been finding a helmet that will fit over the ears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ballacraine Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 Well, I have been searching for a way to get a screen just an inch or so taller than the standard Scura Flyscreen...... Nothing nada so far...... So in one of my not infrequent bouts of lateral (read 'alternative' ) thinking, I dismissed the standard Le Mans fairing as too much fairing and too easy. >> Waaayyy back in ooohhhh 1979 or thereabouts I tested a LM2 that a mate was thinking of buying...Very nice it was too..It had an excellent screen height for me....it also had a really naff rectangular headlamp. I thought the fairing was an excellent combination of form and function though...I know a lot of folk dumped the lowers but being a shortarse they never troubled me and gave good weather coverage. I liked the fairing so much I bought one and put it on my S3.... So up to last Summer then.... 'Right' says I.....'I'll nail a LM2 fairing on t' bugger then!' Now I would have felt really guilty if I had attacked an original pristine 20+ year old fairing, but I found a slightly doggy one on Ebay, bought it and attacked it wi' me Dremel The lowers now weigh less than half what they did. and I 'converted' them so that I don't have to take the exhausts off to fit them. The lowers are nearly done and will look smart. I am determined to retain the V11 original headlamp.....Not going to use the naff rectangular Fiat effort It ain't complete yet, but I am gunning for it to look like a standard factory option. actually it is looking very promising. I am going for the modern Guzzi 'headlamp falling out of the bottom' look I'll keep you posted if anyone is interested. Nige. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big J Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 Sounds good, Ballacraine. How about some pics? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ballacraine Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 Thanks.....Well, I could, matey, but everything is in a state of flux at the moment, sort of a WIP. Everything is filler, alloy, sandpaper and Dremel at the moment I would rather hit you with the gob smacking finished product TBH. If you really would like WIP photos, I could maybe take some & email them to you? Nige. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Ray R Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 I ended up buying the fairing from Moto-International in Seattle. I don't have the part number, but if you call them (800-949-6686...talk to Aaron) and tell them you're inquiring about the color matched fairing Ray bought for his '04 RED V11 Naked, they'll know what you're talking about. It's from Moto-Guzzi, and it looks perfect on the bike. It was $250 US. Update: It's the same fairing that's on the Ballabio, Cafe Sport, Coppa Italia, etc. It's probably for the Ballabio, since it's the same red color as what's on that bike. I think it looks better on the Naked, with it's clip-ons, than the Ballabio. It just seems to fit the look of the bike better. I'll post a pic soon....working on other stuff first.
