Hello,
I recently bought a carbon fiber headlight fairing but I discovered I need a bracket to mount it to the bike. Does anyone know where I could purchase one from Canada or the US as I having difficulty finding one.
Any help would be appreciated. THANK YOU

Is this a stock(-ish) fairing?
Which bike do you have?

You might need a U-bracket with ears for a fairing and the rubber mounts inside the turn signals.

This is for a Monster 696. The headlight fairing is a carbon fiber piece that would be a replacement for the stock so I beleive, it is the same as the stock would be. My bike did not come with the stock mini headlight fairing therefore I cannot just swap it out.

yes there are two small brackets that come with the stock setup, I don't use the stock setup so if I have them we can work out something. I'll check.

Thank you Raux.
That would be really great. As you prbably have guessed I live in Ontario Canada so obviously you would have to ship them.

I plan to be in the garage tomorrow so I'll look for them and some mounting screws.

This is confusing....

Ducati launched a new Monster?

I have a 2011 696, but it does not have the headlight fairing on it, maybe it's a Canadian thing.

I think I heard some guys receiving their bike with the fairing in a plastic bag, not mounted.
Maybe it's worth checking if this is true and if so, your dealer might have it...

Only the US Market got the 696+ as a standard 696
I think all other markets it was an upgrade.
