Lower fairings for a pre-2000 1200?
« on: May 05, 2010, 11:41:54 PM »
I just bought a 1999 1200s and I have been looking for an after market lower fairing kit. I have found everything but what I'm looking for. Anybody have any tips or ideas? Thanks!

Lockhart-Phillips used to make one, but given the newest 1G B12/6 is 10 years old, there's not much market for them anymore.  I'm afraid you'll have to try to find a used one somewhere - and that could be difficult.

Poly 26 out of France still lists a full fairing that replaces the OE fairing - or converts an N model.  You'd probably have to order from them direct.

Problem is, I just looked at the Poly 26 website, and the fairing in your picture is currently 901 dollars USA, PLUS SHIPPING!!!????
That's a bit stout?

When you consider a set of TCP lowers for a 2G or newer Bandit runs $695 (plus shipping) and this one replaces the entire fairing and windshield, the price isn't out of line, IMHO.
