Is there a difference I understand MotoGP riders don't have to supply their own bikes either.

Still a £1000 600SS that was purchased without any fairing panels and fitted with Brancato bodywork is still a cheap race bike compared to a 620 variant and whats more it will look the part.
Nobody is forcing anybody else to go any particular route, everybody is entitled to spend their money as they wish, all Antony was doing was making people aware that there are 600SS parts available.

I guess some people don't have to supply their own bikes. In that context, I guess I am clearly a MotoGP rider, and I'd like to withdraw my earlier comment about this being a Desmo Due forum.

Back to the topic...

I know you're not forcing anyone to buy stuff from Brancato, and I have never seen his work, and I'm sure it is top quality.

However, not everyone knows of the alternatives, and the thought of having to shell out £700 for a race fairing seems ludicrus to me, but then I have the advantage of knowing I or anyone else can get a fairing far cheaper. It may not be for a 600SS, but it's a fairing and it does the same job.

Ahhh, a good website. I wonder who built that, LOL.

There are no prices on there at the moment, but there are some good photo's... something a lot of other sites don't provide.

It may be best to ring Barry, he's a top geezer and will certainly give you good advice.

His stuff is CHEEEEEAP and top quality.

Ummm... I don't see product list, prices or pictures on Brancato's site either.

I'm just trying to make the point that you don't HAVE to spend £700 for race bodywork.

...and what's wrong with the telephone?

I dunno what it costs to make a mould, but I'm sure if everyone would commit to buying one full set of bodywork/seat, someone like BB Plastics would make a mould and probably knock it out at £200 all inc.

Cheap bodywork for everyone, and £5,000 in the bank for Baz or anyone else who can make it.
