I don't know about fit,here's some pics...

the hole distances are about 8.5 cm and 6 cm respectively.

Looks great man!

Ceo.. I must tell you something and this rarely ever happens for me. Your attention to detail is AMAZING. This comes from a self told neurotic attentive person. GO YOU!

This weekend in preparation for goign up to the track it was finally time to mount up the race plastics for the first time after the paint... stripped off all the street stuff, mounted them up, and WOW am I happy with how they look. Robbie Nigl of Peach Pit, from Canterbury, NH did the paint. Anyone who wants their track plastics done... he's your man.

Then I applied the Valencia stripe decals... took me about 3 hours doing it very carefully. Soapy water, squeegee out the bubbles, a little heat, more squeegee, trimming the odd shapes of the fairings with an exacto knife... very OCD process, which is probably which I was able to get them to go on so nicely

Here she is... DONE.

After that, I went up to watch the races on sunday and had track days monday and tuesday. I felt like I had a couple of 'off' days, but hopefully I'll still be able to get a hold of some decent track photos with the new paint.

Bike = complete for now. Well, except for the red numbers that I'm planning to throw on there this winter...

striping just seems funny to me, maybe not wide enough

other than that, that bike is badass, time to spend money on suspension

I was think'n the same thing... I think the number plates are what throw's it off... maybe if they were bordered in red instead of gray?

other than that Awesome

I think it's the yamaha on the front too and then being so empty on the rest of the fairing. Eck, the nascar scheme designer in me is coming back out, must suppress.

How did I miss you getting pit bull stands, you were such the pit bull nazi back on TWF. You were all about the t-rex stands and criticized us pit bull owners.

Looks sick. Why red numbers? That's the color they use for novice racers? You planned on racing next year, right?
