I saw this on a French web site, and although it is designed for the Suzuki SV650 I think it would look pretty cool on a 'Retro' feel XB. Maybe painted in XR750 colours.......




It's not badly priced either at around 320 Euros (US$400 ish?) for the fairing.

Cool!

Who did the frame sliders? Did you have to strip the frame? How much $?

Shark skinz makes a fairing but there are other places you can get them from.

Lucas- Check out bikescreen.com you can get just about any color screen there. I purchased a dark blue windscreen from them it is very nice. Only thing is you have to drill your own holes in the screen. So take your time if you do decide to order one from there. They look great once installed. If you need any tips for the installation of the screen(if you decide to purchase one), pm me, I'll be happy to help.

yeah the front fender is carbon fiber purchased it from racingmotorcycles.com I wanted the racing style and thats the only place I found that had it.

I purchased the frame sliders and the fairing kit from halspa.com I installed them myself, well I disassembled my bike and when I wrecked it I dented that Frame\Tank so my uncle (builds race cars) welded the sliders on for me.

I am also a fan for the NAKED look to but I wanted to be different the then people who has a buell. So when I wrecked it I needed to purchase stock fairing so I just upgraded (since I am going to start to race) I figured it would help to get it now.

Jan: Beautiful work!

I edited your post by putting the pics one on top of the other so it doesn't stretch the screen out sideways. When you post multiple pics, just hit "enter" after each one and that's how they'll end up. It makes viewing them easier for everybody.

Please post more pics when you get it put back together!

What's the chance of a full faired XB from the factory for '06?

Guys, If you are not planning on replacing the black lens bezels, beware. The fairing has been known to melt with them removed.

By the way, great paint.

Jan- Looks sweet.

Capt. has a point, be careful because the plastic will melt in sunlight. The headlights act like magnifying glasses.
