Define 'jacked up'.

I see you are in Conway, Arkansas.  I spent a few weeks out there last summer.  Doing some work with International Bus.  Beautiful area.

Buy your fairing parts on EBAY. You'll save big bucks. If you are willing to pay full price www.bikebandit.com. They have every part known to man.

Ron Ayers is cheaper on new Suzuki parts than either Bike Bandit, or Alpha-Sports.

www.ronayers.com

Consider the possibility that shipping charges would make your online parts as expensive as buying from your local dealer.  Compare before you buy online.

I recently bought some V-Strom parts from my dealer for just a touch more than what they would have been online counting in the shipping.  Might as well let the local guy make the profit unless there's a big difference.

I used to use Ron Ayers... until I found out www.crotchrocket.com is about 12% less on parts.

Are you talking about add-on lower fairings like this?



If so, whatever fits the 2001-2005 B12 will also fit the 2000-2005 B6. There's several different outfits that make them. A few that quickly pop into mind:

JMV Concepts & Metisse (shown above) have US distributors.
Eurobikes and Wild Hair Accessories respectively.
Poly26 & TCP Aerodynamics are available, but you'll have to order them from Europe unless someone knows otherwise.
(TCP used to have a US dist., but they were bought out and the new outfit no longer carries them.)
