~$30 for a brand new aftermarket fairing/headlight bracket for an 848.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Front-Headlight-Upper-Fairing-Cowl-Stay-Bracket-For-Ducati-848-1098-1098R-08-11/162554440932?hash=item25d8ffece4:g:ND0AAOSw~OVWzsjs

Yah sure that's magnesium like OEM, and gonna fit like OEM too.  [roll]

OEM unit from a dealer is ~$250.

Fake FCR carbs too. The price for new carbs is the give away.
The ad will often say "FCR Style" carbs or on an ebay ad the Brand will be "unbranded".
