Hey oso,
what do you think, since I`m gettingt nearer to end of this semester i took some time and looked around on Ebay and found this:

Für Yamaha YZF R6 (98 02) Aftermarket Verkleidung NEU 2 bei eBay.de: Markenspezifische Teile (endet 29.01.08 19:47:39 MEZ)

it is a full R6-fairing made of plastic, not reinforced fibre and comes allready painted.... i think it sounds like a good deal, getting the whole package for as low as 360€ (with shipping included from china)

the only problem is, it is a 99-02 R6-fairing, what is your guess, if it would fit?!
i think, if i remember it correctly, it is a little wider around the tank-region, but the main issue, or thoghts im having is, if the lower fairing part would fit?! any ideas on that issue?

that be so sweet, if alos that fairing yould be made to fit, since i want t street legal and the headlight for the 99-02 model is only about 110€
eBay Motors: Yamaha R6 Headlight 99,00,01,02 * NEW OEM * Head Light (item 260204463924 end time Jan-24-08 15:05:17 PST)

as seen in that link, compared to :
eBay Motors: *NEW* OEM YAMAHA R6 03, 04, 05 HEADLIGHT YZFR6 03-05 (item 280193369034 end time Jan-24-08 12:35:46 PST)

almost double that in the 03-05 model :-/

so i`m not really sure what i should do now...

the total package, Painted R6-fairing plus a Headlight i could get for 750€ for the 03-05 model.... which i think is allready cheap for what you get, but not cheap enough for me... unfortunately

or go with the cheaper 99-02 fairing-headlight package, which would sum up to probably 500€ which is a damn good deal and i could get it in red, white and black coloured, which would be cool since my fz6 is black...

I allready found a guy who is able to weld steal and also Niro steel and seems to make some good work frm it and since i helped him out with his computer for some 5-6 hours in total he told em if iz wasN´t too much work, he would do it for me, i mean, welding a fairing stay... :-)

teh only thing i`m concerned about right now is if it might be possible ti fit the 99-02 R6`s fairing to my fz6...

anyway i chose, i guess, since those fairings are plastic, it shpuldN´t be too hard to cut off a little and make it fit?!
anyone a lower from the older R6 to try out ?!

oh well..^^
beter start egtting some more stuff done here,

greetz and in hopefull anticipation of tips,

alex
