They should all look pretty until the first accident.

Did the fairing kit include the seat pad or did you have to buy one from another company?

first thing the painter said to me:

"now dont go throw the damn thing through the dirt..."



the fairing kit didnt come with a pad. i still need to buy one actually. i could of gotten the supersport tail that would allowed me to use the stock seat, but i wanted more feedback. and i didnt want to have to learn to use a superbike tail later and readjust my feelings/feedback, so instead, ill just learn on a superbike tail... if that makes sense.

damn, looks too good!

i don't know if it will work for yours, and if it does its something you'll want to be very careful doing especially since the bike is already painted... but i ran a seat pad on my 1000 and didn't really like it so i cut out the bodywork where the seat would be and just put the stock seat in... although on a track you should really never be planted in your seat anyways so maybe having one uncomfortable will help keep you moving around more

im actually shopping for a seat pad right now. where can i get them? ive heard the superbike tails are either love or hate. i wanted to try it out. ill see how it goes, but i would like to just learn on it and stick with it. ive rode the bike a couple miles with that tail and it was THAT bad, but i have 2 back to back track days coming up, im sure the last couple 20 minute sessions are going to be not so comfy.

im actually in touch with a guy right now to get some decals sent out to me. are you expensive? hes working on tail section number plates which look amazing, numbers, gsxr decals, and a few other things. let me know what you can do. i agree, it definately needs something.

Am i expensive.. no. do i do quality work yes. just depends on what you want, i can also add in reflective vinyl... not like it will matter much on a race bike but on normal bikes for night use and whatnot it looks awesome. Just PM me if you need to get sometihng on there or dont like your other guys work.
