Afternoon all,
As well as the headlight cover located below, im now after a Kawasaki Ninja Zx12r front wheel fairing (2000-2005). Colour not important. Had a little mishap with mine on the way to Lakes Entrance this morning, and its slightly beyond repair ;)

So much for the new painjobby on that piece...

Holy shit! Nice work dude! Do u have to go with a ZX12 guard again? Could be a cool option to look for something a bit different to go on there now that this one is rooted! Jst a thought...
I'd go look at race-glass suppliers u'l get something cheap there!

I'd love something different, but the only oones ive seen for the '12r are from the US at $300+ + p&h of around $100. So i'd like something local, for sure!

Doesn't necessarily have to be specifically for 12 mate! That was wot I was gettin at! I put a KTM RC8 front guard on my Gixxer! $100 p&h is a bit rich too! I paid less than $200 for mine including postage from the states! Was the one u found race glass? They usually work out a heap cheaper than the (ABS?) plastic ones!

I think it was ABS plastic. Hmm, i'd definitly like something pointier, but wouldnt have a clue as to what would fit. Is there a way of finding out what will or wont fit? Or is it just guess work?

Guess work LOL! Most will fit, they will jst require a bit of modification! I had to make some tiny little brackets up to take up the space on the lower mounting points on the fork leg n cut dwn the rear of the guard as well. Not too much work tho! Well worth it in my opinion! Gives you something different!

Wheel fairing sourced off flea-bay for $85 + p&h. I'll shape it a bit nicer methinks. Thanks for your help mate :)
