I do like how your shawk looks, but I have to request that you post better pictures. Take some pictures during the day please!

Where did the headlight come from? I see that the stock marker light is still there. Do you notice a difference in heat from the farings?

Have you thought about shifting up the rads so that they fill the empty area in the farings, like the RC51 does?

Looks good man. If it didn't have the headlight cutout, that would be one sexy track bike!

answers for everyone the headlamp is a projector from what I was told a BMW car
heat does not seem to be a problem at all so far. Sorry about the indoor pics hope to have a few good pics this weekend I noticed the rads set a bit low in the holes i am going to try a few differant mods to correct the issue. Oh and OTTO MAN thats no headlight opening that is where the air intake would be if these skins were on an RC51 but thanks to all for the input it gives me a few more ideas

What did you do to mount them up to the stock fairing stay? Did you have to fab any brackets??

Pics have to be resized. I use photobucket.com, it's free and easy to use. Then you just paste the link and (I think its called embedding) it shows up in your post.

So how did you do it? I know the RC is wider than the 'Hawk so does it look good from the cockpit too? It looks like you trimmed up the lower too. If you did a good how-to you wouldn't have a one of a kind anymore. Although a new member just bought one already done up in a RC51 costume.

the fairing stays were swapped from left to right basicly turned upsidedown the right sets abit more forward than the left wich when bolted to the frame on opsite side just seems to fit well with these skins the cockpit looks like it was ment to be

That's it? Just swap fairing stays (the little pieces of metal above the radiators?) and RC51 race fairings bolt on?
