These are all light weight and very thin, just like race fairings.SVR6 installation on 02 and olderThis is the one that is preferred by racers. The reason for the "R6" in the name is that the top portion of the fairing is the same as a Yamaha YZF-R6. This gives the fairing a narrow aerodynamic profile and allows the use of a stock R6 windshield. The lower fairing is the same as the SVS and mounts in the same way. The upper takes a bit more skill to install and requires the use of a racing type front brace (shown above), available at Grave Motorsports, SV Race shop, and most racing supply companies. This fairing can be applied to 03 models. To See more photos of the SVR6 fairing Click here. OOPS I messed up!If you drilled a hole in the wrong place or cut or chipped an edge DON'T PANIC!

Trimming Tips! DrillingWhen drilling holes in fiberglass, drill slowly. Don't force it, you can crack or break out the hole. Cutting and TrimmingFine tooth hacksaw blades or saber saws with carbide grit blades work well. Just remember to take it slow. Hogging your way through a part is the way to crack it. SandingOrbital sanders, Jitter bugs, or other fine sanders work well. It is best not to use anything rougher than 100 grit. NEVER sand away the gel coat, it is a protective layer. Paint Prep If you are planning to paint your new parts the most important thing is to lightly sand the shine to an even mat finish. Normal paint preparations are all that's needed for a beautiful finish. DO NOT sand through the white gel coat, it is a protective layer. If flaws or imperfections need to be corrected, body putty or other common body shop fillers and other materials may be used. Always use a good wax and grease remover.
