That's just a defeatist attitude Boris ;)

The front fairings can be made to fit but it's a lot of work. He could use a TZ250 race seat unit to replicate the SP rear end.
So is pissing in the wind ... you can make it work if you try hard enough :mrgreen:
The 3TJ is shorter at the headstock you'd have to cut and shut it and that would loose the proportion of the fairing.

I honestly was not being lasy . i have been searching high and low. the project dosent start for another 3 weeks or so . so i got loads of time .
the reson for wanting to change is because i love the look of the triangle head light . weather its a 600 ,400 or even on the 1000 . its the front end that i want for my bike but NOT theback end lol . as seen here on a 3tj with r6 rear Image

i know that it will not be a direct fit but wheres the fun in that .
it might be hard to tell in my pictures but my bike has been totaly butchered so even if i get the right fairings they will take just as much work .

i thought mine was a wg1 because it is stamped both on the engine and frame ...
i have managed to find some fairings localy but thay are not cheap in my book . im looking at about 415 USD for top and front sides

A bit rough but this is from FZR600 3HE, I think this is a 91 92, the good news is this will bolt onto your bike with the standard fairing lowers. I'd fill the air intakes with indicators.
The 3TJ headlight will fit (they're not a very good headlight though.

You'll need to get these - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/YAMAHA-FZR600 ... 3ccb7f874c theres a second one on the bay ... unavailable part.

Yes you have a 1WG, all the bikes up to the 3en2 are 1WG then they're 3TJ ... although the 3TJ engine is stamped 1WG

I'm having some of those Akai fairings for my 3EN2 4/6...

Would love to hear feedback on this seller Kayla as I will be ordering a set of fairings for my 3LN FZR250 from them later this summer. Just getting all the rest of the bits together to make a decent job of it (which meant getting another one!) :whistle:

If you get stung for VAT or have probs - or don't! Would appreciate knowing!!!!

:rocks:

No probs. I'll probably get stung for import duty on them, but even after adding £100 or so on it's still a good value set of fairings with a cool paint job for around £400.

You might be able to claim some of the tax back as a company

If the seller hasnt already sent them it might be worth asking him to mark the box as 'sales samples' with a negligible value?

I can claim the full amount back as a tax deductible expense as the bike is owned by the business ;)
