When I google the part number, it comes up for the new bikes... but I was told by the seller (Honda dealer) that it works on 6th gen too. As with much of this thread, I guess we'll find out.

Sent from my A0001 using Tapatalk Which I already knew and your post doesn't help one bit. The part is for an 8th gen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lint Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 I sees them online for about $75. If they fit, that will be cool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VifferCrab Posted August 26, 2015 Author Share Posted August 26, 2015 Auctmarts got back to me. Couple more days before I'm able to put eyes on the prize. I should have pics to share by the weekend. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer tbzep Posted August 26, 2015 Member Contributer Share Posted August 26, 2015 I sees them online for about $75. If they fit, that will be cool! I stared for abut 10 minutes at an 8th gen and a 6th gen swingarm photo because I was tired and didn't feel like going to the shop to look at my bike. At the minimum, it looks like we would have to drill holes in the swingarm to mount it. I'm hoping I'm wrong, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CandyRedRC46 Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Thanks for putting in the work guys. It would be great to get my bike looking new again for $400, after 70,000 miles and 7 years of daily abuse. Sorry for smart ass response earlier. :) Sent from my A0001 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry for smart ass response earlier. :) Sent from my A0001 using Tapatalk I think a lot of us are watching this thread closely! Going by Kevin's pics, the fairings are probably going to be fine. I'm waiting to see if they've improved tank cover finish and fit. If they have, these guys will probably get 20 or 30 orders within 24 hours!

In other news, it's about time for another pic of wifey for absolutely no reason other than she's fun to look at. She's so clandestine, but has amazing helmet hair. So there's that...

VifferCrab Posted August 27, 2015 Author Share Posted August 27, 2015 Guess who's got two thumbs, and an 8 spoker on its way?This Guy.

Member Contributer iamthedruman Posted August 27, 2015 Member Contributer Share Posted August 27, 2015 Let's see: new bodywork, hugger, and an 8-spoke? Should look ballin' when done! Following...

Anxious to take a peek at what's coming your way! New Sargent seat, new mirrors, new levers, new grips, new bar ends... new just about damn everything. This is NOT how I saw this going at all. LOL. I have my doubts about the hugger though... I can't imagine it's gonna work. Gonna give it a shot though. If not, I'll use it as big ass cereal spoon.

VifferCrab Posted August 30, 2015 Author Share Posted August 30, 2015 New levers made it this weekend. Driven D3 grips with Driven Axis bar ends en route... No word from Auctmarts this weekend though, like I had anticipated. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VifferCrab Posted August 31, 2015 Author Share Posted August 31, 2015 Here we go folks... I have informed them that the scheme was to be carried over to the cowl, but to just send everything else and correct that later.
