| Pocketbike Dealer  |  Fairing fixing ! Seen alot of posts on fixing fairings , then seen the work , some good .......... BUT , i need to know the right way ......, actually we all need to know ! with the speeds driven on the track crashing is always a possiblity .......... sometimes its just so small that buying a new kit is probably not necessary! So hows it done?

| Administrator Friends call me God ;)  |  Most users can't paint their own bikes, so for most it comes down to simply fixing the crack. Fixing a crack isn't going to make the fairing look pretty unless it's painted, but it will be stronger than factory. Use a two part autobody epoxy such as 3M Automix between the broken pieces and underneath the fairing. After the epoxy has dried it can then be ground down to look as close to flush as possible. This type of epoxy is flexible. Paint as necessary. |

| Pocketbike Dealer | Yes i could see that but , read that by layering 2 on each side of fairing ( inside and out ) that the strenght is unbelieveable!

| don't even get me started on fiber glass I had a heck of a time doing my seat... I just made a mess out of mine but stronger then the original... I thought I could just do it but its harder then it looks... I think it can hold up to any crash now though |
