: Auctmarts Fairings Review w/detail pictures
junglicious 11-04-2008, 09:41 PM Quick Summary: 06 GSXR 750 with Gloss/Matte Black aftermarket fairings. A couple of months ago I lowside on the left and the bike went sliding. I wanted track and street fairings and decide to go with aftermarket fairings by Auctmarts. I paid the full price of $675 shipped because I wanted some kind of insurance if something went wrong. I couldn't get the Gixxer forum price of $575 shipped after the $475 shipped deal was over. Since I bought them through ebay Auctmarts offer to refund me $50 and send me a double bubble and frame sliders. I got the $50 refund and am now waiting for the double bubble and frame sliders. Below are the reviews in categories and pictures.
Quality - 90: The ABS plastics are good but not as flexible as the OEM fairings, I cracked one of the small "Z" shape side fairing. The matte black pieces did not have enough layers of clear coat, still good. The gloss black pieces surprised me though. The gloss looked like the factory black pieces and seem like it had a nice clear coat over it, then again it could be that it is gloss black. I am very please with the gloss black pieces. There were little imperfections in the paint but you won't be able to notice unless I told you where to look. The inside of the pieces were not painted very well and you can see in some areas the white ABS plastic. I guess they figure the inside didn't need that much paint since it would be covered up. The tank fairing did not have the 3D "S" logo but a flat silver "S". I had to supplied my own foam, velcro, and heat shield on the pieces that required them to match the OEM pieces.
Fitment - 80: I had some issue with the bottom part, where the left and right side fairing connect, of the right side fairing. I had to do some sanding and drill the hole bigger for it to line up and fit the metal bracket in. The left side I had no issue. Where I sanded I used touch up paint to cover the white of the ABS plastic. It was just on the edges and inside so its not noticeable. The upper fairings where the headlight is house fitted good, just a small gap between the headlight and the ram air covers, again not noticeable. The tail section fitted good as well beside little gaps next to the turn signals, again not noticeable. The bottom tail piece I had to drill the holes bigger because it did not line, it was a little off. The inner fairing that house the reservoir on the right and the headlight/gauge wires on the left did not line up good on the edges and you can see a small gap. The left side main fairing did not have a hole drill where the screw goes, the one closest to the headlight. It was an easy fix since it was already outlined and all I had to do was drill it with the right size drill bit. The tank fairing fitted good. I didn't install the windscreen yet because I need to order a Zero Gravity Clear DB but it looks like there will be no problem with fitment or nothing a drill can't take care of. The bottom pieces where you screw in the faring next to the exhaust wasn't perfect but it did fit. Over all I didn't have a problem with fitment beside the bottom part where the left and right side fairing connected. Everything else fitted fine.* I don't know about their fitment before the "revised" fitment but they are good for aftermarket.
*I didn't use all the pieces, some pieces I used OEM fairings. The pieces where the front wheel hugger, bottom fairing of the headlight, both side of the seat fairings, the small tail piece that goes over the rear brake light. For these pieces I didn't feel like replacing the foam or velcro on them. The front wheel huger I didn't feel like taking off and since the gloss black match it, if not perfect, there was no point for me to replace it.
Price - 85: I don't know if I can justify the full price of $675 shipped for the aftermarket fairings. They are good for the job but are not OEM and I don't know how well they will hold up. I would consider $500 shipped is a good price and maybe even $575 for the Gixxer discount. I know shipping cost a lot but I am considering my end and the total I have to pay.
Durability - 90: I do not know how durable they are yet. I rode around town today for a couple of hours total and had no issue. I will know how durable they are with time like paint fade/chip, cracks, and melting. As of right now they seem like they will hold up well and will still look new after awhile.
Its been almost 2 months and everything is still like new. However I won't know until the hot summer day comes to see how well they will hold up with heat and being in the sun. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt and will change the durability rating accordingly.
Shipping/Packaging - 100: Once everything was finalized the fairings came within a week and a half with tracking number. Each piece was wrapped in foam and bubble wrap. There were no broken or missing pieces.
Service - 90: Communications took awhile since Auctmart is in Hong Kong because they seem to be only online after 2am and off on the weekends. So it took a day to get each replies and close to 2 weeks to finalized everything. It took a week to get a $50 refund. They did not send my double bubble and frame sliders with the fairings. They are going to send it separately and I am waiting for a tracking number from them. I asked for no decals on the fairing but I got the "GSXR" logo on the left and ride side fairings and the other decal came separate to be put on by me if I chose to. They clear coat over the "GSXR" logo on the left and right side fairing so I can't get them off. Also the "G" from the "GSXR" logo is not a deep red like the OEM are from what I can remember. Auctmarts wants me to send them pictures of it so I will point them to this review.
I got the frame slider and the windscreen as promised. I personally wouldn't use the windscreen but someone else can. The shape to me is kind of funny. The double bubble seems to be to high and pokes too forward. The frame sliders are nice but I will not use them since they are not tapper at the end so I would have to cut a big hole just to fit the slider full diameter. Nothing was done about the "GSXR" logo being clear coated over since I asked for no stickers at all. Over all good service, but nothing was done about the "GSXR" logo being on the side fairings.
Overall - 89.16: I will update the rating on durability as time goes on. I was pleased with the fitment of the whole tail section, left side fairings, and headlight fairings. I try to be detail or a little harsh on the reviews for people who are considering going with Auctmarts will know and not be disappointed. Also consider that your experience will be a little different then mind. Fitment might be a little different as well. Would I recommend Auctmarts to someone, yes. However for $675 that will just depend on the situation. $675 is not a bad price but not sure if I can justify it right now. You will need an electric drill with different size drill bits, sander bit, touch up paint, and lots of room. The right tools and rear stand does help.
I have had the kit on the bike for almost 5 months now and everything is still good. Everyone loves the black on black 750 and thinks its a 600. No one knows they are aftermarket fairings and fitment issue is not noticeable when taking off certain fairings for maintenance. I will be taking pictures again to update everyone on the durability. Still they are not OEM quality but for the price you can't go wrong. I like them.
I base my point system on A=90, B=80, C=70, D=60, F=50 and comparing it to OEM for fitment and quality.
I over expose all the pictures so you can see the lines more clearly. If you see any white spots, they are just lint because I just washed the bike when I was finish.

FlipRN 11-04-2008, 10:46 PM I'd say, they look pretty good. Price seems pretty fair for aftermarket/painted fairings.
gsxr_Lvin 11-05-2008, 12:00 AM good write up. I was looking into ordering these fairings and this thread made my mind.
Quick Q - Doesn't matte paint not have clear coat? Since im planning on buying the full matte black fairing set, then will i be able to get the GSX-R decal off?

No.
the matt black have clear coat on them. you are thinking of flat black. there is a difference. i have the matt black ones from them and that gsxr decals are clear coated so you can take them of.
O and btw my fitment was 100% with all the holes and what not. my only issue was the insides of the fairings, and none of mine cracked on install. and i didnt get a db or framsliders for mine and i paid full price......
i atleast want a DB. come on Auctmarts, throw a dog a bone here
FrozenMercury 11-05-2008, 12:43 AM Looks good man
junglicious 11-05-2008, 01:21 AM I just got the tracking number for the two other items, db and frame sliders.
I'd say, they look pretty good. Price seems pretty fair for aftermarket/painted fairings.
They probably are. Give me some time and miles with these fairing and I might make a better judgment. The fairings are good for aftermarket.
good write up. I was looking into ordering these fairings and this thread made my mind.

Not sure, but these are clear coated over. If you decide to get them you shouldn't be to worry about the fitment because they will work. Personally I don't think anyone will know unless they closely inspect my bike and know what to look for.
No.

Yea, fitment will vary from each set. Overall fitment is good I think. The crack was where the "Z" shape side fairing got small and starts to form an upside down "Y", small hair line crack. I am used to the OEM fairings be more flexible and I got a little rough putting it together. It was my mistake. The reason Auctmarts is sending me those stuff is to offset the price because I went through Ebay instead of directly through them for $575. Like I said, I just wanted some extra insurance.
Looks good man
Thanks bro
auctmarts1 11-05-2008, 03:13 AM Actually fitment should NOT vary because these are all coming from the same moulding, according to our testing this should fit around 90-95% of stock fittment. The only thing that affects how this fits is if your bike has been in an accident before and if you are using aftermarket parts. If you purchase aftermarket parts and accessories it may make the fitment not up to the 90-95% that we have measured. However we try to make the best product and hope that everyone is happy at the price that we sell them at.

The bike is pretty much stock besides the fairing. So any fairing issue is because of fitment. Even though my bike was lowside it does not mean it should not fit perfect because my OEM fairings still did, even the crash pieces. The only main part I had issue with is the bottom of the right fairing where the left and right side connects, it did not sit flush and therefore the holes did not line up all the way. Even off the bike it was the same issue. This is what I experience and someone else might not. Other people on here have said they have no issue with that part so that is why I am saying it will vary. The fitment is good and what I experience I am sure will vary with other people. I have taken the bike apart more times than I can count on my fingers and toes so that is where I am coming from with fitment issues.
doc750 11-05-2008, 12:53 PM that's pretty awesome fitment for a $600 pricing point. Any lower price is just icing on the cake.
Glad you got the bike back together!

They are Starbucks worthy :cheers But really if you wanted plastics you can use as track and street, these would be it. Even if not for track and you just wanted a new color scheme/design these would work too. The plastics cost $450 which is a great price but with shipping it comes out to $675. I wonder if you live in Hong Kong you can get them for less with shipping.
rls61 11-06-2008, 10:04 AM cant see the pics for some reason but nice write-up
subee13 11-06-2008, 11:33 AM Bike looks good man.. Keep this one rubber side up if you can.
auctmarts1 11-11-2008, 04:41 AM We are glad that most of you seem to like it.

damn 225 for shipping...thats half the cost of the actual fairings...:blink
auctmarts1 11-13-2008, 03:03 AM It costs $225 because the weight of the containers is around 30lbs and the size of the containers is over 3 feet high. So these factors lead postal services to classify this as over-sized and we must pay extra postage for this.
Simonpink 11-15-2008, 07:10 AM Where did you get the carbon chassis cover from?

I got it from a UK ebay seller. Here's the link:
http://stores.ebay.com/PRO-FIBER-CARBON-COMPONENTS
Thanks. The quality is good and so far they are holding up good. Very fast shipment with this guy from my experience, good service too. I did have to drill my own holes for the rearset screws. I told him about it and he is in the process of predrilling them. Not sure if the new batch will have them or not. You can thank me later, jk.
89stangGT 11-22-2008, 01:01 AM if I had to buy new plastics, I would not get the same color I had before.....hence how my bike is black now instead of white/silver. just my opinion.
MEACHAM 11-26-2008, 11:06 PM im very interested in buying a set for a 2003 gsxr 750. i have a couple questions ....
there are people that said they fit decent but after RIDING the bike for some time, the heat makes the paint bubble and distort.
also, on ebay there are TWO different ebay accounts. auctmart and auctmart1 ....BOTH of these members are selling these sets and the listings are IDENTICAL .... yet BOTH of these members say 'dont trust other ebay sellers ... we only have ONE ebay account' ..... yet it seems that there are more then one ......?
sick6ness 11-27-2008, 01:52 AM Thanks for the honest review:cheers

I don't know if it would fit the same for 2003 because from what I understand the "revised" fitment is only for the newer model bike like the 2006-07. I got mine from auctmarts1 which has the same member name on here. As far as the bubbling affect I don't know how other people prep their plastics before install. If you read their feedback you will see they still have problems with the older model bikes.
The plastics you get with the aftermarket company are just that, it doesn't come with any other fittings like foam, heat sheild, tabs etc. I prep all the aftermarket plastic to have the same fittings as the oem one. I think it would be important to put some kind of heat shield inside the lower side fairings. I put them on both sides for mine.
Thanks for the honest review:cheers
Your welcome:cheers
Vazquez80 11-28-2008, 06:29 AM Bike looks good man.. Keep this one rubber side up if you can.
Surely its rubber side down.. rubber side up IS a crash?! :shifty
Anyway.. congratulations on getting it looking so good. I like the tank guard for the knees - where do you get them from not seen ANY in the uk but seen alot on here!
andrewGSXR600 11-28-2008, 09:23 AM Them look really nice to be aftermarkets
cinder99 11-28-2008, 03:40 PM AUCTMARTS
This is why I stay away. You have to pay shipping fee's again if the item is damaged or wrong...not to mention if the fairings do not fit your pretty much stuck with them.
In the item auction at the top it says "Garantee fitament" well where is the GUARANTEE? The only thing I see is this :
The item must be return in good condition with original packaging and accessories, and never installed or mounted. We will not accept returned items more than 20 days after delivery.
how can u Guarantee fitament if the buyer doesnt get a chance to install the product? It the product doesnt fit your saying the buyer is screwed cause he installed it.
Buster Hymen 11-28-2008, 06:02 PM AUCTMARTS

Interested in the answer to this as well........:wait
auctmarts1 11-29-2008, 02:45 AM We mean that if it does not fit we will give you a refund for the fairing cost.
cinder99 11-29-2008, 03:13 AM We mean that if it does not fit we will give you a refund for the fairing cost.
as stated in my previous post, what you post in here doenst really hold water. You have the statement Im my previous post on ur ebay auction.
The item must be return in good condition with original packaging and accessories, and never installed or mounted. We will not accept returned items more than 20 days after delivery.
but this is on ur ebay auction ^ but I still see nothing about a guarantee, I see only the customer getting screwed. The customer cant install the product to see if it fits per your ebay rules. So lets just say YOU ship the wrong product...then the customer has to shell out another 225 in shipping cost. I know it says in ur auction you will refund the cost, but if you add it up..the cost of the fairings plus shipping your looking at 800 + another 225 to send back. So that person will be out of a grand...might as well get some oem fairings for that price.

+1 Good point
MEACHAM 11-29-2008, 04:04 PM yeah I agree. seems like a 'one-way' transaction. anyone have experience with NICECYCLE.com ?? they seem to have the same kits with more selection actually. prices are a tad higher, but still a good deal. they are located in the states and take visa as well ..... might just holler at them instead
cinder99 11-29-2008, 04:56 PM bump
cinder99 12-02-2008, 06:45 PM :wait
auctmarts1 12-04-2008, 04:49 AM We are not in the business to 'screw' people over, we're here to make sure people have a good product for a good price. We are reasonable and will try to work with people as well. So far with the guaranteed fit we have not had ANY returns or complaints so I really don't think that this is an issue. As well the $225 is for express shipping. If you ship with usps (we use them as well) but priority and NOT 3 day shipping it usually works out to around $115 - $150 depending on your location. As far as nicecycle is concerned they are not so 'nice' as they have stolen our pictures and other sellers from ebay that is why everyone watermarks their pictures now to prevent people like nicecycle from stealing anymore. Ask them to take pics from different angles or with someone holding a nice cycle logo next to the fairing that they are selling and they will not be able to do it.
MEACHAM 12-06-2008, 09:24 AM And The Question Has Still Not Been Answered ................................. Why In Your Auction Listings In Big Bold Letters Does It State That You Only Have One Ebay Account And For Everyone To Be Aware Of That ..... But You Actually Have 2???????
You Have Admitted Over And Over That Both The Accounts Are Yours. (which Is Fine) .... But Why In Your Listings Does It Clearly State In Big Bold Letters That You Only Have One?????
junglicious 12-20-2008, 12:50 AM I went ahead and updated the rating for the categories that were pending.
If anyone has any other experience with these fairing from this seller please post up. I hope this helps or give some light for the people who are interested in these fairing.
So far I like them and I will post up updated pictures of the bike. The bike is done and I have been riding :biggrin

FrozenMercury 03-26-2009, 03:08 PM Sorry, but I hate the Pig Spotters.
CRASH90 03-26-2009, 04:00 PM The bike looks pretty good. The blues match well, but plus 1 on the pig spotters
junglicious 03-27-2009, 01:15 AM Do those mirrors even work? You might be better off using the hotbodies flush turn signal. A friend got the jordan kit too but for his 1k. I don't know who he got it from. The fit wasn't so great. None the less it still looks good if you don't inspect it.
orangepeel 03-27-2009, 08:04 AM They work great on highway....not the best on smaller roads.
But the look and colour goes great with kit............so thats why i got them
I actually had the exact same fitment issues you did............based on your pictures........but those were minor
darkknight8425 03-27-2009, 09:37 AM Orangepeel how long did it take to receive your fairings I ordered mine last week.
g_ngan 03-27-2009, 08:58 PM Everything looks great. It's ashame that they don't do Hong Kong's local business even if they are selling it from Hong Kong.

Thats fine if they work for you
Orangepeel how long did it take to receive your fairings I ordered mine last week.
I got mine a little over a week, no more than 2 weeks.
Everything looks great. It's ashame that they don't do Hong Kong's local business even if they are selling it from Hong Kong.
I don't know if they sell their or its manufacture there, but I don't see why they couldn't sell it there either. That does suck, you would save on shipping I would think.
I have had the kit on the bike for almost 5 months now and everything is still good. Everyone loves the black on black 750 and thinks its a 600. No one knows they are aftermarket fairings and fitment issue is not noticeable when taking off certain fairings for maintenance. I will be taking pictures again to update everyone on the durability. Still they are not OEM quality but for the price you can't go wrong. I like them.
orangepeel 03-28-2009, 10:17 AM Darkknight.......my kit took 4 weeks to get to miami, but i ordered during the chinese new year r something like that so i had to wait until the guys came back to work.
I am in Barbados so then i had to wait an additional week to get it here.
fjmotorsports 03-28-2009, 10:45 AM good fitment....have used on a couple of customer rides and I own 750. Will post pics..
Here you go...
darkknight8425 03-29-2009, 03:27 PM Thanks for the info hopefully i'll receive my order this week.
07gxxr6 03-30-2009, 01:20 PM I ordered a set about a month ago, got em in-got em on....I have BARELY any fitment issues, and the ones I DO have, the stock fairings were worse. They fit tight, no rattling, and nice paint. I ordered mine with Suzuki Blue and Pearl Orange, no decals so I could put an AMA kit on it(which haven't arrived yet) I will post some pics up, but have it all torn down again for my 15K service...I'll post soon. My overal score for them- - - 98.5 (there is an eyelash in the paint) LOL but im putting a decal over it anyways...HAHAHA
750gsxxr 03-31-2009, 03:28 AM nice post it helped my make my choice
auctmarts1 03-31-2009, 04:36 AM Thank you for appreciating our work.
darkknight8425 04-02-2009, 09:03 AM Darkknight.......my kit took 4 weeks to get to miami, but i ordered during the chinese new year r something like that so i had to wait until the guys came back to work.
I am in Barbados so then i had to wait an additional week to get it here.
I got the same message about the Chinese New Year taking place. But anyways how much did it cost you to get you gas tank painted.
orangepeel 04-02-2009, 11:18 AM didnt repaint tank...........colours r close enough
g_ngan 04-02-2009, 11:21 AM I don't know if they sell their or its manufacture there, but I don't see why they couldn't sell it there either. That does suck, you would save on shipping I would think.
I believe it's manufacture in China and sell it from Hong Kong. I would like to know what's the reason for not doing business with locals. Auctmarts?
darkknight8425 04-02-2009, 08:28 PM didnt repaint tank...........colours r close enough
Ok how much were the rims or did u repaint them yourself
k5_750 04-02-2009, 11:27 PM good write up. I was looking into ordering these fairings and this thread made my mind.
Quick Q - Doesn't matte paint not have clear coat? Since im planning on buying the full matte black fairing set, then will i be able to get the GSX-R decal off?
i would refer to this post before you click the buy button! if it doesnt fit or break they will tell you to fix it yourself, it should be pretty cheap?

k5_750 04-02-2009, 11:44 PM We are not in the business to 'screw' people over, we're here to make sure people have a good product for a good price. We are reasonable and will try to work with people as well. So far with the guaranteed fit we have not had ANY returns or complaints so I really don't think that this is an issue. As well the $225 is for express shipping. If you ship with usps (we use them as well) but priority and NOT 3 day shipping it usually works out to around $115 - $150 depending on your location. As far as nicecycle is concerned they are not so 'nice' as they have stolen our pictures and other sellers from ebay that is why everyone watermarks their pictures now to prevent people like nicecycle from stealing anymore. Ask them to take pics from different angles or with someone holding a nice cycle logo next to the fairing that they are selling and they will not be able to do it.

k5_750 04-03-2009, 01:16 AM no i just hate seeing people ripped off and treated badly. this is the reason forums exist to share experiences. good/bad i was on a lotus forum.
and was 3 hours away from buying a used lotus exige sc. when i posted my soon to be joy. suddenly i find out from the original owner that the car was wrecked 2 times. major damage the second time. and the lotus dealer swore up and down it was cherry. he dropped the car off both times to them to have the repairs done. second time left it there and traded.
for a dif car. that would have been a 46k mistake. sorry if my post hurt your feelings but people deserve to be informed. its not about the fitment issue its the customer service and quality side that upset me.

Why would I be hurt. You can talk all you want I just find it funny that you tried to beat a dead horse back to life. Even more funny if the guy actually both the fairings and loved them. Would be ironic if he did and it was shit. The plot thickens... :shifty
On another note, I got some crg mirrors and the go pro hero wide camera coming in. I'll post up pics and maybe vids when I get the stuff in. Mainly for the pics is to show how the fairings are holding up. I'll think about the video. Don't want people on here getting excited about my wheelies and twisty riding. I'll make sure to post up tracks vids though, everyone loves those =D

tony2010 04-03-2009, 10:56 AM I dont think K5_750 did anything wrong, it's true what he said, this is a forum, to inform.
If Auctmarts sells a so-so product wouldnt you like to be informed before you buy, then weigh the good with the bad?
Hell I bought their Lucky Strike kit for my 07 gsxr 600 and after a Summer's worth of riding, the fairings are cracking all over the place. Not to mention the fiasco I went through, to get a replacement peice from them (that came in broken also).
So in the end, if he can help someone come to a decision, why not :cheers
07gxxr6 04-03-2009, 01:11 PM None of my pieces came in broken, I had great communication with them, and I do have some very MINOR fitment issues....but it IS an aftermarket kit...I also have some great fitment in other areas, so it balances out. I'm perfectly satisfied with my kit personally. I'm also taking all the precautionary steps to get them heatshielded, to avoid ANY melting/bubbling problems that may occur... but thats just me covering my bases so I don't have to worry about it. Although I haven't riden with them on, so I can't personally compare my situation with Tony, but as of now.....I think I got a great product for the price. my .02 :)

Don't worry Tony, the k5 guy is just really dramatic. I wasn't defending or trying to take anyone side. He just see it that way because he has a thing for auctmarts. I'm done.

auctmarts1 04-05-2009, 02:36 AM Sorry about this, our shipping company donot allow us send it to the APo address, I am so sorry man
armorman2001 04-05-2009, 09:45 AM first sorry about the multiple post, my internet was messing up. You would probably get a lot of military business if you attempted to ship to these but understandable. I wasn't told why they just kept telling me no when I emailed your company. Thanks
_єℓ_иιñσ_ℓσ¢σ_ 04-08-2009, 11:30 AM Ey,
I did't see this on the (ebay) site.
How much is a set :
- unpainted for the gsx-r600 K6 ?
- only with only primair on it?
- one colour ?
Do you send to The Netherlands(Europe)?
If so how much is the shipping?
thnx :D
Soemy 04-10-2009, 02:42 PM Hi guys
another question about these aftermarket fairings.
Just slipped today with my bike at low speed, and my left side is scratched from front till end.
So i was looking for these fairings.
Do one of you guys got any trouble with the customs? I don't know how they handle aftermarket fairings...
and I might think taking my chance with these fairings (blue/white)
thanks

I think I paid around $260usd with shipping. But that was with a 30% discount ebay was having. Price is not the factor sometimes, its the quality/finish of the product. The ones I have are very well made and they still look new like the day I got them. I was overseas for awhile so thats why the late response.

How do the colours match up to your OEM parts? If you were to put pieces from both sets on the same bike would you be able to tell the difference?
GIX1000_07 02-03-2010, 01:33 PM Here is a pic. The oem is on the right and the auctmart is on the left. Becarefull the Quality of the plastic is very poor compaired to oem. I would buy used off ebay before I bought auctmart again. I have been slowly buying oem from ebay to replace the cheap auctmart fairings.

I got black and it matched up fine for me. black is however an easy color to do so if your have a different color your results may vary. However I replace all of the visible fairings with the aftermarket so even if there is a difference you couldn't tell because they weren't mix match from oem to aftermarket.
spring/summer is here so I'll do more update shots when I get the time.
ladc5 04-23-2010, 12:18 PM I agree that black is pretty simple and easy to conceal if there are any imperfections, now me on the other hand has a yellow K7 1000 and with some of the colors schemes I"m interested in I'd have to have the Tank repainted which sucks.
junglicious 05-03-2010, 03:40 PM I wasn't able to update my first post so here are the pictures of how they look now. I haven't washed the bike in I don't remember how long. I just been doing a wipe down and its parked in the garage so it doesn't collect dirt as if it was outside. I haven't rode the bike that much yet but since spring and summer is here I will start to ride it more. Maybe I will do a track day this summer, but for sure some hill riding.
The left underside belly of the fairing is warp a little because my heat shield peeled off a little in that area. Either then that the fairings are still nice. Can't tell since its black and unless you get down and look at it up close.
If you have any questions please feel free to ask.
ezy20004 12-30-2010, 10:57 PM All the pics on these fairings are great. Im definitely looking to get some asap.
vdsneto 03-31-2011, 10:33 AM how fast have you been? since you said you had trouble fitting where they meet on the bottom (right/left side).. I had a problem with some i bought and the OEM one taht they just rip off with the wind and going about 140MPH... the lower fairing break off since its not a perfect fit where they meet... any trouble or how fast have you been??
junglicious 06-12-2011, 02:57 AM I have gone around 150mph on these and still no problem. Depending how yours were attach plays a role I'm guessing. Fairing still looking good, but then again I usually keep all my things clean and nice. Always garaged.
I don't go on these forum that much anymore. I spend most of my time on the ClubLexus forums now :) And the thing is I don't feel a need to upgrade/update my bike either. I still like the 06 750 styling compare to the new ones. Not much of a break through from what I know to have me purchase another bike. I might even go down to a 600 for my next bike or stay with a 750.
GSXRiderK6 06-14-2011, 02:00 PM Bike looks good man.. Keep this one rubber side up if you can.

Yea most of the people do... Me and some friends just go for some wings and to see if there are any unique bikes out there. Also if I am looking to buy a new part it's nice to see if prior to ordering it.
