Default New Fairing

Boys where can i get a new front fairing for my bike at a reasonable price.....seems like everytime i use my bike something snaps off it Hit a rather small bump today at full throttle and the jolt snapped the front fairing off where its mounted to the front bracket I checked Davesmotors and Lorenzos and i just can't fork out 100+ bucks for a new fairing.If im gonna pay that much without shipping i might as well buy another bike for 200 bucks and use this so called (new one) for parts ..lol.

i can't possibly see any possible way of repairing it .The part of the fairing that the 2 bolts were mounted to cracked entirely off and is no longer there. i figured
the part that came off would still be in one piece but in fact it is not so it may have been dodgy from the start.

i would just get a new set, then fix the one you do have broken if you CAN fix it and use it for a spare, like i said take off your fairings till you have tuned it and modded it to your liking
