That looks awesome, but it broke my perch. Can't even salvage it. I checked the link on the rearset and made an offer. Some decent condition used plastics would be awesome, though. Ebay has none at a decent price in good condition. I can do done fiberglass work, but most of the side fairings are broken.....

Time to get crafty and handy with the rattle cans
I've played with placcy welding, epoxy and glassfibre - Here's what can be done with plastex

I've collected quite a few damaged plastics for the bike and refurbished them - unfortunately for you I'm in the UK :-(

Hey zxbud, do you think the front brake lever is the place to cobble something together on a 100hp 160mph sportbike? I mean that would be the dumbest of all ways to end up a parapalegic for the next 50 yrs. (or worse).
No one has built/modded more stuff than me but when you come around a turn and there is a car there (etc) you will be squeezing that lever way harder than you think.
God forbid you have someone on the back and are rolling dice with their life too. (not to mention the baby in the stroller you are about to kill)
Some things are really NOT worth salvaging IMO

Thanks a lot for all the help. Got the rear set really cheap! (50 bucks) Windscreen is much appreciated! Now I just need to find the right side fairing at an affordable price. The top of mine, right behind the mirror, is completely broken off. No telling where it is or I would put it back together. What are some suggestions as far as levers, from personal experience that aren’t too pricey?
