I am not interested in changing the back parts. Has anyone made such an attempt? Please help at the earliest!!!

When i went to buy panels for my v1 the last time, the showroom guys tried to force me into buying fairings of the v2 (i refused because i needed to change only one side's panels)
They said it was a direct fit. Best thing to do would be to visit a SVC and ask them about it.
P.s. Let us Know the results

I visited 1 of the SVC here in mysore. They told that it cant be done. But by the way he told that it cant be fitted, I doubt if they have even made such an attempt. If anyone can guarantee me that it can be done without any modifications to the mounting points, I am ready to make the makeover myself. PLease confirm me this one more time so that I can go ahead with the mods.Racing Instincts

Beware of Bread, don't say I didn't warn you!
More than 98 percent of convicted criminals are bread eaters !
Statistics show that more than 75 % of violent crimes are committed within 24 hours of eating bread !
Bread is known to be extremely addictive. Subjects deprived of bread and given only water, actually begged for bread after just two days !
Bread has been proven to kill. Scientists have now uncovered alarming evidence that 100% of the people who eat bread will eventually die !

+1 and also he should have put the LE fairings.Originally posted by stefanm View PostYou can see here the mounting points are the same, only the filler panel this guy has used, required two additional mounting points on the frame, personally I don't feel this bike looks good.'On the Road that never ends...'

Sorry to break your bubble but that pic looks photoshoped, check the front headlight and side bolts. I'm not denying that such a mod is not possible but that photo is quite strange and different. If you have more images then please feel free to post as my cousin is also interested in this mod.Originally posted by stefanm View PostYou can see here the mounting points are the same, only the filler panel this guy has used, required two additional mounting points on the frame, personally I don't feel this bike looks good.
If i'm wrong then I'm extremely sorry but just saw that pic closely.sigpic

Not sure if it's photo chopped or not, the pic is from the modifications thread. The side fairings definitely fit without trouble, the only upgrade that requires some fabrication is the rear sub frame for the split seat, though not so costly. If you want the v2 swing arm, rims, chain/sprocket set, tyres and hugger, that will cost you around 19-20k.Last edited by stefanm; 09-27-2012, 08:02 PM.Beware of Bread, don't say I didn't warn you!

I have always hated the rear part of v2.0.. Though looks sexy, its not very functionally designed. I was only interested in the engine side panels. After seeing the picture, I dont think i will do it. It looks bit ugly. Is v2.0's front tyre available in market and if it is available, can anyone tell me its approximate price?Racing Instincts
