the bottom of the fairing needs a bit shaping, but all in all, a nice idea.
wonder how the front it mounted

so a Dunstall classic type of fairing like what Gustafsson sells then and adapted to a newer gen bike? -> http://www.bikescreen.com/index.html

To me it looks to front end heavy, it has a tiny little arse and a huge set of tits.
Also the fairing needs to come back towards the rider a little

one way to do this is we can all get naked . . .


« Reply #9 on: December 05, 2012, 12:23:31 PM »

the whole reason i got into monsters was the naked aspect.  too much plastic for me.  first thing i always do with em is take it all off anyway.   boo

I agree with ugly ducky, got mine for the naked look too but I would love to be able to add some plastic for the windy highway rides

I like it but the exhaust needs to be slimmed down and a tail section would be the icing on that cake.

Sport Classic?  That's got Hailwood written all over it.

It's a photo butchered MH900E fairing grafted on top of a monster photo and doesn't exist in reality.

The flowing shape from tank to fairing is making it look front heavy as is the sense that the fairing slopes downward towards the front and I find it clumsy looking as a result
.
I've seen better monster conversions using a retro fairing originally made for an SV650 made by poly26.
