Righto ppl,
I am after a fairing stay to be used with my race glass..... the only problem is.... that there is a lack of 95 ZX6R fairing stays around.... however there is an abundance of 98ZX6R ones....... will it fit? How different are the upper fairings ?
Cheers
EDIT: this is the kind of thing i am after.....

they are a little different Rich! But if you use a Suzuki special tool (A Hammer) it could be made to work.

hmmm how much different are we talking? Do you think it will be just a matter of a slight bending process? Are the lengths about the same?

Ugly different mate! Get some small dia alloy tubing and mock it up yourself with a pipe bender, then get it welded. I have a non farked one here which you can borrow for a template if neccesarry. Not like you havn't got the time!

hmmm cheers mate, I might take you up on that offer..... btw are the points which mount it to the actual frame the same......I have had another idea.....
I could get this....
and then just get a couple of ears made to make them finish in the same location as your stay....
