lower fairing GSF1200S
« on: March 29, 2005, 12:57:17 PM »
Hello,

Last week my dealer installed the lower fairing from 'Bike Design' that fits the original top fairing. To me it look's great, gives the GSF a grand-tourismo sports-touring kind of look. Good fitting, no vibrations, good materials, decent stuff. Price around 400 euro's...

Actually Bike Design is the dealer that sold it, JMV Concept (in France) is the company that makes it.

That fairing is available in the USA from Eurobikes.

correct as it is, they have two models, a GT version for a N model or this one that accompagnies the original top fairing ... most colors are in stock and match the original colors, but my 2004 antracit color was not availble so my dealer got it painted in a bodywork shop and the colors match just fine ...

I don't speak/read/write French and the web translator I used didn't do a very complete job, but I have always been under the impression their GT fairing uses several pieces from the "S" model to complete the job - like the headlight, mirrors and fairing mounted instruments. While you could do this with a "N" model, you'd have to buy these needed "S" model pieces on your own to complete the transformation... as they did below when they put it on a GSX1400



Here it is on a Bandit:



Now, if there was just an easy way to put the shaft drive system from a GSX1100G onto a B12 with this GT fairing, I'd never lust after a FJR.

Looks good, but why would you want to cover up that pretty engine? :duh:

That fairing gives that black bandit a good stealth look. BTW what kind of seat is on the last bandit with the GT Fairing.
