Guest zrx1200rdude Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 Hello all, I am currently in the process of (hopefully) selling my bike, and have my heart set on a v11 sport...They seem to be somewhat hard to come across used, and I found a clean local LeMans...The fairing is not really my cup of tea, and I was curious if this is something that could easily be sold/swapped over to have the sport naked fairing...Has anybody else done this? Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richard100t Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 Yes taking off the fairing is a pretty easy thing to do.. I think you may need a different headlight though others here have recently done this project & will probably give you all the info you need. In any case dont worry, the naked look is easy & cheap to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks in advance! It is much more simple to remove a fairing (4 bolts?) from a LeMans (if that is your cup of tea), than to add a fairing to a sport. Tell us a bit about the LeMans you are considering. Year, mileage, condition, bling? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom M Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 There's a thread in the "how to" forum with lots of good info for you: http://www.v11lemans.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=7325 I'm sure you would have no problem selling the fairing if you were sure that you'd never use it. I believe Greg Field was looking for one? A buddy of mine is in the market for a ZRX1200 but he wants to stay local. How do you like yours? Is it much different from the ZRX11?

Greg Field Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 I may be interested in the fairing and swapping some parts for it. Let me know if you're interested. . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrt Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 I think Jaap (forum owner) did just this- look for a picture of his bike in the gallery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest zrx1200rdude Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 Thanks for all the replys..Tom the 1200 is a much better way to go, they come standard with about 15 hp and a lot more grunt down low...I am afraid I am gonna regret selling my rex, it's been the best bike I've ever had and as reliable as an anvil..I merely have an ignition advancer (fabricated by a member on the zrxoa.org forum, best forum around hands down), D&D full exhaust system, took off the square light/fairing and put on a zr7 headlight...I dyno'd it about 2 years ago and it put out just over 130hp with 85 ft/lbs across 2/3 of the rpm range...Oh well, I think I'm falling for a guzzi...

You'll find the guzzi an even smoother classy ride I'm sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
