WANTED - pics of 916 fairing on monster

[bradders]

I am converting my 600 monster to a track orientated bike, and want to change the looks. Have seen a few fitted with 916 fairings and had a look how its fitted. Seems straight forward but cant remember exactly what the fitments look like or how the fairing is fitted.

I could do with pics of:
*any fitment to the headstock/frame for the 916 headlight bucket
*how the faring is fitted on the side of the frame
*any adjustemnts to the base where the bellypan meets the gear stick/zorst

also, while I am at it I think I will strip it down and have the frame & wheels powder coated. Anyone know a good, cheap(!) place to get this done Hants/Berks?

as much detail as poss appreciated

I fixed mine and am pretty sure that AK did his with a Ally fairing front bracket. You''ll need to weld a mount point for that on the headstock. A 996 style headlamp bracket might be too heavy - or you'll need a pretty strong weld. The nose is mounted to this barcket.

The sides are fixed at the top to jubilee type brackets mounted on the frame rails. The bottom of the sides are fixed to the bellypan which is mounted under the engine. The bellypan is mounted to the underneath of the engine at the back (but not the front).

If you're passing Camberley on your travels drop in for a butchers.

I had to dremel the back of the right hand fairing to get over the clutch cover - as per the pics.
