Couldn't resist that $68 price on these things. Fantastic low profile helmet. Size large fits my noggin with all my hair in there. Shield was $20 but still the whole outfit came in under $100 with a helmet bag! Now I'll stop lusting after that Davida helmet in my profile pic.  ;D

My new boots and jacket arrived today from leatherup.com.  I'm very happy so far with them.  I'll get a pic up tonight!

Ok, spill the beans. Where did you find them at that price?

Airtech Fairing from fellow member- looks like with a little trimming, should fit well on the R80RC Project  ;D

Gotta get moving on this one as my painter is moving to CA and is doing the tank/tail before he goes in July . . .

I'd have no qualms about cheating you out of that fairing, but nice as it is, it seems a touch small for the application.  It might look better with the next size up with a little more depth so that the upper section is a couple of inches higher. Nice fairing though.

Teaz- thanks for the input, but I actually wanted it smaller as I do not like the appearance larger ones- the main reason I went for a fairing at all was to balance out the large tank and tie it all together front to back.  Once mounted in the correct position, painted and the windscreen is on it will obviously flow better.  Also, the gauges are sitting up higher in the picture than they will be once mounted.  But, if I decide against it, I will put it on one of my CB350s.
