Hey Parts guy Got a friend who has a firebolt and he wants to put the lightning flyscreen on it. Should work, shouldn't it? Can you direct me to the parts, and offer any insights? Also... His rotor is pretty cooked (he stunts) and I was wondering if it can be turned, or if it can only be replaced. If it can be turned, where and what are the particulars? Thanks

The fairing swap can be done.  It is a pretty big job as far as labor and parts, but can be done. The rotors can be honed, but if its pretty bad, I recommend replacing it and all the hardware mounting it.

Any leads on the fairing, and how much they cost?

you'll need a complete front and relocate the relais, ecm, etc.

Hmmm.... Sounds like a can of worms to me. Guess I will advise him to just stunt it till he breaks the firebolt fairings off then go without them. Hes just finishing the roll cage, so I'm pretty sure hes going to balk at moving everything around now. BTW, the guy that has put the roll cage together for him is designing it to be bolt-on for production, so if you know any stunters that ride buells, I can hook em up with him. Very strong cage, frame AND swing arm are protected. Thanks guys
