Group order for new 2008-12 fairings
Hello everyone! Starting a group order for 10-15 full fairing kits that I am importing from Shengzhou, China. I will be placing the order soon ( preferably within 2 weeks) & wanted to let everyone know:
Total price : 300 + 35 (shipping) = $335 (via PayPal; delivered to your doorstep within the US) which is about $150 lower than everywhere else. Paint theme : If you want a particular paint theme, send me picture(s) (preferably through private messaging) and I will get it custom painted. However, I will be taking your word for it and will import it without asking you to pay for it. Once the item has arrived, I will inform you. So, I would appreciate if there was no last minute mind changing as its hard to sell custom painted fairings. Peace of Mind: If you want to purchase through Amazon, I will put them up on my Amazon account and you can message me your ninjette.org name, address and fairing paint theme. My Amazon account name is "The River Xpress". You can google it & it will pop up. Here is the link: http://www.amazon.com/s?me=A33TB6JVOMNYYJ However, Amazon charges 12% fee on automotive parts. So, the price will increase by $36 (335+36 = $ 371) Local Pickup :I live in Anaheim Hills, CA. So, if someone wants to pick up the kit(s) locally, the price would be $300 (since there is no shipping). Race Fairings : Full body kit made with fiber glass and high quality epoxy resin are also available. These are $500 in total. The set is complete (upper, lower, tail, front fender). They will be unpainted. The fasteners are an additional $ 15 (some pictures are posted along the thread) I will update the thread as the order slots get filled up. Don't hesitate to PM me if you have any queries or concerns. I will be happy to help. Thanks ABS fairings: 9 left Race fairings: 10 left Last futzed with by Khan; November 25th, 2015 at 12:50 PM. Reason: updating quantities of items left |

Just to be sure, are you guys interested in ABS plastic race fairings or the fiber glass ones? Thanks

I want fiberglass but I suppose ABS will do. I'll also need these ASAP or I will just order some hot bodies.

Khan, can you estimate a shipping time frame? 10-15 kits from China for only $35 each... sounds like waiting on a boat.

After I place the order, I should receive them in 30 days. That is what the factory has estimated. It might be earlier or later depending on how strict customs is.
$35 is not the shipping cost from China, its the shipping cost from me (California) to you. I just guessed it would be around $35. If its less, I will reimburse the amount through Paypal |

Regardless, I will inform you of the outcome. I have forwarded pictures to the factory and asked them about the fiber glass option for you guys (lets not settle for less if a better option is available) |

I contacted the factory today. The good news is that they do manufacture Fiber Glass Race Fairings. However, they will be slightly more expensive than normal ABS fairings owing to the material used (still way cheaper than hot bodies). I will receive an accurate quote by tomorrow and will post pictures and prices then. Race fairing fasteners are also available. Will include their separate picture as well Surprisingly, I was expecting more people to be interested in the street ABS fairings. Proves our forum is frequented by a lot of racers |

Timing is everything!
Do this again in the spring a few weeks after the riding season is in full swing. It should be different as all the street riders that have those unfortunate beginning of season boo boos and will want new fairings, turn signals and bars. :\

ABS crashes and it tends to shatter easily. Repairs are often impossible because you need all the bits there... you can repair a crack but missing/ground off stuff, not so much. Chances are you do not get to ride a faired bike again until they get replaced... and if they're low-cost Chinese imports, good luck finding a replacement part. In theory you can patch with glass and ABS-friendly resin, but... not optimal. Best of luck. Fiberglass crashes and it cracks/delaminates but is generally repairable. Often a crash will leave the glass cloth intact even if the matrix has been compromised. Unless it's really bad, you don't even miss a session. Then you go home, repair the fairing and you're good to go for your next day. If you've been to the track I'm sure you've seen lots of fairings that have been repaired over and over. Note: A member pointed out that fiberglass resin is critical, and he is of course right. The best race glass costs because it's made with quality epoxy resin, not vinylester or el-crappo, brittle low-end epoxy.

Race fairings cost and material
Got the quote:
Fiber glass race fairing = $500 (delivered to your doorstep within the US) which is $350 less than hot bodies or other local vendors. Thats the best price I could obtain on the condition I import a ton of them(10), lol Anyways, the material is high quality epoxy resin. I made sure it wasn't polyester resin or vinyl ester resin. It will take 20 days to make. The factory wont paint it because its difficult for the glossy paint to adhere to fiber glass. If you are looking for a race fairing, I too would advice against getting ABS for the reasons mentioned above by adouglas. The fiber glass will end up saving you money in the long run. The fairings will be complete including tail, sides, nose, front wheel etc. They manufacture race fairings only on order and didn't have any for Ninja 250r in stock to send me pictures but sent me these pictures stating that they would be very similar to the pictures attached. The middle two pictures were just sent to me to show the molding process. The 3rd pic was to demonstrate the use of epoxy resin & fiber glass. The set of fairing fasteners is also available and is an additional $15. Its optional and just makes the process of putting the fairings on more convenient and quick. Picture attached. Feel free to shoot me any further queries or concerns |

Noted, thanks. Should be able to squeeze some fairings in during the spring if there is some space left in the shipping containers at that time.

I may be misunderstanding your post; did you find the 2 for 1 on the webpage? If not; scroll farther down on that page. The 2 for 1 is listed there.
