Suddenly struck by inspiration, I started designing a new version of a one piece tank cover/airbox/seat unit. An old NC30 tank was butchered and filled with foam for a base. Now sanding of the foam, and merging it to the old seat unit is next, and then comes the lovely task of perfection of this plug for a new mould. Wonderful. Oh, how I've missed the styrene fumes

Thanks mate! I hope I find something usable before I resort to making my own fairing, I really do! I have decided the 600rr fairing just won't do, a tad too big for the bike...so a set of NSR500V fairings are on their way to try out next.

im not sure on exact weight but its half the weight of a standard nc35 one and as far as i know that includes the cover as well

I was thinking more of the entire bike, but 2.2kg for the fuel cell is good! I'll put mine on a scale just to compare.
