Does anyone have an original optional re5 fairing for sale? If so, I may be interested in buying. Please contact me if you happen to have one for sale. Thanks.

I have one I'm in the process of restoring to put on my 75. I may be willing to let someone finish it insted as I need to sell my bike. I have some of the orange paint for it too. Or when I get it done, I'll sell the old one. It's in decent shape but the dash is cracked and has some paint blemishes besides being faded. I'm in Reno NV.

Rotorious, So if I'm understanding your message correctly, you have one you're restoring to replace and old one? So you have two? I would prefer to get an un-restored one or one that "needs work" only because I assume it would be less money. How much are you asking for whichever fairing you'd be willing to sell?

At this point I think I'd like to finish my restoration and swap them out. But that may take a month or 2. I'll sell the old one for $75. The shipping may well be alot more.

Would the fairing that you'd be willing to sell include the mounting brackets?

No, the one I'm restoring didn't come with mounting hardware, so I'll be reusing mine. They are simple brackets though. They should be easy to reproduce.

I was dealing on a fairing that was in EU. Outrageously costly shipping killed that deal. ($3000+ to ship, yes $3000 not $300) Could I get your shipping address and I will try to determine what shipping may be from you to me. The owner of the other fairing gave me these figures, dimensions and weight to try to determine shipping. They were 43"x 37"x 18" and 22lbs. weight. Can you confirm that these measurements are correct so I can estimate shipping.

89506 is the zip code. That's all you need for post office or shippers office to your address. Package size & weight seems right.

Rotorious, I have checked shipping cost via UPS and FedEx on their websites. Both shippers look like they would charge over $400 from your location to mine. I may call to an area shipping store tomorrow to verify these figures are correct. If they are, I may have to pass on considering purchase of your fairing. I appreciate you offering it for sale.

Did you check with Grey Hound Bus ? They do ship, It's a very well kept secret. It is how I had mine shipped to me. I have sent other large packages with them. I think it will be less than half of UPS or Fedex I have never had a good quote from UPS using their web site. I called and got a much more reasonable rate. An example would be the RE5 engine shipped from Canada to my door at 90 LBS was $153 in 2020

Rotorious, I called the area shipping store this morning and they confirmed the shipping costs I found on their website was correct, over $400. Could I ask what city in Michigan you may be travelling to in June?
