Hey hey, I was the first one to vote 
Just curious, why would it take you the whole riding season to get it done?

Camaro, he said because money is tight.
Crash, I would have to say go with the OEM fairing option, only because it seems like it would be a huge pain to have to do the mods for the headlight. PLus, you never know what the quality and fitment will end up being.

Where the heck did you find track fairings for that price? Tell me all your secrets! *creepy stare*
Seriously though... I'm looking for a second set of fairings for track days... and I can't find anything under the $500 and up range.

Race fairngs are cheap. Probelm is, most are fiberglass and wont give a whole lot and if you work on your pike, or stuff hit whatever they are more prone to crack or chip. A lot of maintanence on them.

E-Racing plastics $365.00 shipped ... www.superbikestore.net
You have to cut your own holes and the prep is a tad bit more then others but they seem to be getting really good reviews from some racers I know. And for the price... who the hell can complain, right?? lol
We have a member on here that is a distrubutor and he has offered a small discount... let me see if I can find his name again.
Here's the look i'll be going for but different paint (This is superbikestore.net track bike)

Let me know if you find that and can get it at a lower cost. Send me a PM when you do!
Also... what's the difference between "E-Racing Complete Kit" and "E-Racing Complete Kit - Superbike Tail"? Can I use my stock seat with one of them?
Oh yeah... and according to the site, E-Racings' fairings are flexible... so I would think that would mean you don't have to deal with cracking, and as long as your paint can be flexed (like the factory paint can), I would think you'd be fine? The drilling your own holes could be a challenge, but not THAT bad.

From what I read.. the Complete Kit you can use your factory seat and the leg panels are connected to the gas tank cover. The SB tail you have to use padded foam, as the seat portion is not cut out for the stock seat and the leg panels are connected to the tail section and not the gas tank cover. (The One pictured above is the Stock Tail) As far as paint and flexibility, I too think i'd be ok (at while i'm on the road saving money on gas for a new set of OEMs...lol). Drilling my own holes doesnt bother me because I can be as anal as I want and ensure proper fitment

Werd.
If money is tight, I say ride her fightered for a while with all absolutely necessary parts replaced til you can afford OEM. Cutting an exact hole for headlights in those race fairings will not be fun. Also keep in mind that it is spring and there will be a lot more part out bikes.
