Quick release fairing connectors (anyr racers know?)

Sat Aug 25, 2007 8:10 pm » Post: #1 » Download Post

Does anyone know where to get the fairing connectors that consist of a plastic plate with a piece if tubing connected to it that slips over the tubular ali frame-to fairing connector, both have a hole drilled through them and you attach with a retaining clip?

If i knew what they were called I would search but I dont so I cant, you see them used on race bikes for quick release purposes.

Thanks

Do you want both parts (the part that bolts to the frame and the part that is attched to the fairing) or just the fairing part?

You can get the outer parts here http://www.sp125racing.com/RS125%20Bodywork_Fairings.htm or just ask Honda, they are standard on RS125 and 250. But the inner part is welded on the frame.

I too have been looking for someone to make a substitute for a NSR, using the existing holes, to make it possible to use the real thing without having to weld on the frame

here is a detail from another bike

They came ready fitted to my MC16F3 frame! HRC made all the best bits for the '16! Very Happy

HRC call them "pins"... really helpful, eh?! Laughing

One of the guys on the RD forum sent me this link, its what I am looking for but may not be any good for you Andy? also there is a link on the RGV forum and there was a GSXR and an RGV with these as standard they used a rivited on mounting post that may be of use to you?

Completly unrelated but I found a lovely ali quick action throttle while searching for the clips. Its an RS site so you guys probably know about it already.

Looking at your link I reckon that I could use those clips better than the mead speed ones, they look thin enough to slip into my ali mounting strut if I drill the threads out, thanks.

I have two mounts per side as you can see in this picture:

These are the ones to get. At least if you fall off you can replace them.



Genuine HRC too.... So cant be fitted to a Suzuki Very Happy

Stephen:

For an NSR you have to drill into the frame ! And they'll probably dent the frame in a spill.

I don't like that and I expect the authorities don't either.

We just need someone (nudge, nudge, know whatahmean, know whatahmean!) to make a piece of alu that can be bolted into the existing holes under the frame, bends around the frame and has a small diameter tube or stud that will allow the piece below to go over.



If need be, you could make a bracket of a piece of flat alu and then bolt the plastic thing (meant for bolting to the fairing) to the bracket and the tube above would fit nicely onto it and the other plastic adapter would go into the other end of the tube.

No holes were drilled into my frame, HRC made them for that bike (the holes are already there) Wink

I have the other type on my RS but F3 uses the RC type.

The tubes I showed has inner diameter 11,8mm and outer diam. 14mm length 65 mm.

Yes, I bought a sample but never got any further.

One thing I dont like about them is, that to get the clip in, the plastic adapter must not be totally in, but about 5mm from all in.

No additional holes drilled in my frame. The F3 pins are exactly as you describe... so "someone" (HRC) does already make them! Smile
