I'm thinking of changing all plastics to CF, i know it won't be cheap, but does anyone know a site/company who would do this sort of thing?
Bike is a K2 GSX-R 750.

cheers.

There are a lot of firms that do specialise in this. I think Demon Tweeks do some.

Mates got one of those Nero all CF bikes, beautiful, but 4k for a new tank (ouch)

eBay is your friend: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SUZUKI-GSXR-1000-K3-CARBON-F...

That's for a thousand, but they might do some for a 750

There's a company called Reverie (I think) that work with CF, mainly for the Lotus Elise/Exige market but they can apparantly make anything!

If you Google it theres loads.
It's not cheap! A guy at work did it with his scooter when he was about 18..
It cost him about a grand to do all the body work!

Knew it would be expensive, but b..limey! Hmmm, re-think then.

Reason for all this is the bike has been damaged on the left side, fairing, nosecone and ground the seat unit a little. Right side is fine.

Tracking down some original parts is proving fruitless. most are the wrong colour or wrong side.
I might consider a repair respray, some have said a custom job would be good but i'm not so sure...

What would you guys do?

TIA

If you cant get them fixed by a plastic welder, just buy some off of ebay.
the gixxer is a very popular bike.
Join some gixxer forums and ask around.
the cheapest way would be to get them off egay.
I saw some somewhere yesterday for a full set that came off a bike they were rece prepping for £600.
Or alterntaively if they arent in your colour on ebay just buy them and get them re-sprayed, buy some decals off the net it'd be a much cheaper alternative!
Buy some crash bungs too
