Rc51 fairing brackets?

Ive had a search but have come up with nothing, so does anyone know if you can simply purchase a set of brackets designed to hold the Rc fairings on our Superhawks, or is it a custom job all the way?

Cheers

You mean something like this or all the little parts that bolt onto the motor?

1998 HONDA VTR 1000F SUPERHAWK FRONT UPPER STAY BRACKET OEM STOCK PARTS | eBay

To answer your question, nothing will match to the SP1/SP2

Was the dream to put rc51 fairing on the hawk? Thats so doable that its been done. Several guys on here have really cool bikes with that fairing. I want to do it someday.

Ive seen them, was the reason I ended up buying a set of race fibreglass fairings, however after 2 days of working with them, they dont fit, the bottom piece hits everything, downpipes, sump, side casings, oil pipes, Id love to know how they've gone about fitting them!

I had them on at one point which cleared everything, however the fit was really really bad, great for a trackbike, but for a road bike it was shocking!

NO disrespect to the group or the thought.. I would just rather own the real thing(buy a RC51).. IMHO the RC51 is the ugly sibling-until it dances in the curves.
The S-hawk is pretty child that is not as co-ordinated in it's dancing..

Hey nora just bust out the hacksaw. A little cutting and you can make anything fit.
