2007 S2 Fairings in the UK? - Yamaha FZ6 Forums - International FZ6 Motorcycle Community Forum

GastonJ · 06-13-2008, 03:22 PM

Has anyone bought the side fairings in the UK for a 2007 FZ6 Fazer S2? I'm thinking about getting some and wondering how much more weather protection they offer? It would also be useful to get some idea of price, since I can also go back to the dealers who gave me a 10% discount card to buy them, if buying them elsewhere isn't any cheaper.

Cheers,

Pete

Not sure about the UK, but 'Bren' (who's in Finland I think) got side fairings. Haven't seen much from her in here recently though.

"Fast blue one", has them...

Looks very nice, do they offer much more in the way of protection? and how much were they? I'm trying to decide whether it's worth me buying them.

Cheers

Yeah, I've been wondering the same thing.

I've just checked on price. £379 inc vat for the lava red ones for my bike. I'll get 10% off that by buying them from the dealership I bought my bike from anyway. All I need to know now is - how much more protection do they offer over not having them?

Cheers,

Pete

They do offer a reasonable amount of protection but not a massive amount. The trouble is I did 600 miles without them and 2000 with them and can't remember too much of what it was like without them .
But I do like the look of them though.

I've just dropped an order in for mine and paid for them. I also bought the genuine Yam frame protectors at the same time (saved me a fairing and broken leg in the past). Cost me £424 all in after the 10% discount I got from the dealer. Should be here mid-next week.

I'll drop a pic of before and after in. I'll also try give some feedback on any difference I preceive if anyone's interested.

Cheers

<< it's a fast lava red one

I've just heard from the dealers today, Yamaha have cancelled my frame crash protectors. The reason appears to be that Yamaha no longer make/supply them. Seems rather strange, but it appears to be true.

The dealer is looking around for another manufacturer, but while they do, does anyone know of any frame crash protectors which would not involve drilling or cutting the fairing lowers?

Cheers
