Race/ Track Upper Fairing Stay


I was just looking for peoples opinions and experiences on aftermarket fair stays. I need one no matter what, and I see there are a few options out there. Stick with another stocker, or spend a little more on something track specific? Im mostly thinking about how well they hold up in a crash. There are a couple with replacable parts (morse, Gp Tech), and vortex which is one piece. What do ya think? Thanks!

Re: Race/ Track Upper Fairing Stay


stay away from vortex ... fiberglass holds up better

I ended getting a yoyodyne and it is excellent!

Re: Race/ Track Upper Fairing Stay


another idea would be to go through street and comp to get the one they sell....its fairly good with break-away ears on it, and since S&C is always at louden it makes it easy to get the replacements when you need them (since they do break/bend pretty easy in the event of a get-off).

Re: Race/ Track Upper Fairing Stay


Ive had the GP tech one on my R6 and also have it for my GSXR. So far I like it. Order an estra set of ears just in case. And in a pinch you can use some aluminum tube from home depot.

Depending on your application check the WERA forums I got both of mine for 60-75 bucks each.

Yeah those breakaway ears are tempting, but the R&R is cheaper. Maybe Ill just test them both out
