    86 700, can anyone tell if this is aftermarket or original? Need a new one but want both sides to match IMG_20131129_113426_017.jpg IMG_20131129_113336_748.jpg

    Not sure of older model fairings but the ones on my '01 VFR800 have a marking indicating they are Honda parts...

    Interesting.... I didn't notice any markings on mine but doesn't mean that there aren't any, I'll have to look again

    That fairing can be repaired (easily if you have the broken-off part), and replacing both sides doubles your expense and trouble.

    OEM fairing would have a brownish 5"X5" protective panel in front of NACA duct, some silver tape for heat protection near the bottom, and riveted connections at front bottom area for clothespin-type connectors.
