Ebay Fairings

mrohrer210 · Apr 11, 2011

I'm looking into changing the fairings on my ninja and was wondering if anyone has any experience with the fairing kits that they sell on ebay. Are they good quality, and how complicated is the installation process?

Hit the search bar, been a few topics on this.

Generally they are very passable for track fairings but thats about it. Link to the ones you're looking at?

Install is easy, especially if your bike still has the busted ones (I'm assuming) still on.

They may look really cool, but that's how they sucker you in. My advice is don't waste your money, they are cheap and fitment is a bitch. Stick with stock oem and get a custom paint job.

I was looking at purchasing this one specifically, I'm not looking for anything high performance, someone backed into my bike and tore up the fairings on the right side. I'm just looking for something to make my bike look nice again, and that won't fall apart on me

I love how they make the aftermarket kit look so good and sound so easy to apply, ingenious.

Beware. I have never heard anything good about them. If I told you you're going to get dicked, would you still buy them?

I think you'd be disappointed with these to be honest. Would you just be replacing the one side front panel??

Thanks for the advice, they do look kinda shitty, I think I'm gonna just put out the extra cash and go with the OEM fairings.

Someone round here recently bought a OEM looking and painted fairing... maybe they'll see this and help you out

Yup, you will be gambling with your monies... Remember, you get what you pay for. Good decision! But if you do choose to get them, please post and add to the knowledge base! Best of luck and keep us posted!
