So I've been looking everywhere for a good topic or video on compression mold fairing kits and just cannot seem to find a good video on fitting and/or a forum post detailing the pain in the ass this is about to be. So I figured id post an IN-DEPTH review from start to finish including shipping times and communication with FairingMaster/LKKMOTORS. I decided on Fairingmaster/LKKMOTORS because of price and it states that they were a direct supplier for most china brand fairing kits. I probably got bamboozled but i pulled the trigger cause my bike that i just bought looked alot worst that i was expecting before buying.
I bought a 2012 FZ6R from a buddy mainly because of the inline 4 and I didnt want to ride a SS and hurt myself. I rode a SV650 for 2 years as a primary vehicle so experience wasnt the reason. I was pretty disappointed in the power of the FZ6R but then again I push limits and giving this bikes power it only gives me so much to push lol.
Bike in IDLE sounds way softer then originally thought but then again sounds better then my lawn mower sv650. I bought the bike for 2800$ cash with 4.1k miles on it. It was dropped and the side fairings were taken off. nothing on the engine got scraped but the fairings. Ill post a pic showing what it looks like now, Do you think it was a good deal? I thought hey ill just buy some new after market fairings or something. Well i didn't realize it was an arm and a leg for them.
NOW ONTO THE ACTUALLY TOPIC.
I just order my COMPRESSION MOLD FAIRINGS(I KNOW IT SUCKS BUT I PULLED THE TRIGGER.) from Fairingmaster/LKKMOTOR today AUGUST 29, 2020 for 580$ shipped, 3-10 business days shipping. it was 70$ more for 3-10 then 20-50. Figure less handling and less damage could happen would be worth every penny and the seasons almost over, would like to see what the whip looks like before winter.
I will update everytime I speak with them all the way to putting these bad boys on. I just couldnt find something like this and figured id post my detailed view of a full compression mold fairing set form start to finish. First post on this forum take it easy 🙂
The damage isnt noticable on pic but has rash on front fairs, side fairings were taken off cause they have rash all over them. and front fair is broken slightly. small dents on tank. anyone whats best option with repairing dents on tank? Bondo repaint? Replace tank? just touch up. im really looking to make this like brand new though so that should be taken in to consideration
