Just like the title says, getting rid of my race skins that came on the bike. The pics below should give you an idea of their appearance, I'll try to describe in detail as best I can the condition of each piece. Will supply detailed photos on request. I'm gonna do my best to describe EVERYTHING here as best as possible...just wanna keep everyone happy, and avoid sending out multiple PMs with the same info.
I got these on the bike when I purchased it back in May. They are unmarked with a brand-name...so I'm assuming they're one of the "ebay specials". They were never crashed on, but there are some areas of minor damage just from constantly pulling the plastics off and putting them back on.
There is a small ~3/4 inch crack in the tail...it is between where the rear seat meets up with the subframe and is barely visible when everything is mounted up. In addition, at the front of the tail, one of the holes that attaches the tail to the subframe has cracked...so it takes a washer and bolt to hold that in place; though I havent had any issues with that.
The tank cover, which is probably clear from the pics, is the worse of the pieces. The previous owner cut off the ram air covers; I'm guessing that they didnt line up properly and that was the easiest solution. At the front of the tank where the 2 bolts go into the frame, the fiberglass cracked on that molded bracket; using some scrap aluminum or just a large enough washer holds it in place just fine.
Other than that, the only other damage is a couple holes between the lower and upper fairing that had to be re-drilled due to fitment issues. Not really "damage" but there are a few unused holes. There's also a scrape mark on the left side...didnt wreck the bike, it's from dragging my plastics through the turns...oops.
So basically...all in all its not the prettiest set of fairings, but if you're wanting to get on the track a couple times and not worry about destroying your street plastics, then this is definately a reasonable set.
Included is the upper/mid, lower, tail, and front fender.
Asking $150
