Is there a website for Tecnicad?

 

Here ya go Sarah...http://www.prototecnicad.it/en/.... If your gonna order a coil cover, let me know, I have a direct email for Simone, he was very helpful!!

 

Will try to remember if I ever get there

 

Thank you!! I have a friend born in Frankfurt that would love one from there if you happen to go that way as well.

 

Collect some more friends somehow related to Germany and I might do a round trip for you

 

I received the chin spoiler....but, I might not be using it. I'm not really liking the way the top of it looks, it's boxy and I think it would look better if it was flatter, more flush to the frame, so.....I'm trying another one, I ordered a "Crossfire" chin fairing from Thunderbike. It's shorter and the top sits flush.... I'll decide which one to use, after I see what the Crossfire looks like on the bike, but I'm pretty sure the it will look better than this first one...of course either way it will be painted to match the bike!!

This is the one I got..




I just taped it on to see how it looked..




Here's the "Crossfire" I have coming from Thunderbike..

 

I like the Crossfire, way better.

 

Yeah, the Thunderbike spoiler looks much better than the other one....but you might need to cut a hole into the front of the Crossfire to grant sufficient air flow to the voltage regulator. There is a reason why most chin spoilers have an open front and why the regulator has those cooling ribs.

I noticed that a couple of Thunderbike parts actually seem to need some finishing work or modifications. Same for their rear fender and their tank, AFAIK.

 

Ya Ray, I was wondering what made some guys decide to cut holes or vents in the Crossfire and some don't?? I didn't know if the the guys that cut holes had problems with heat, or just thought they might if they didn't?? I've been trying to find pics of bikes with it, and about half of the ones I see have holes/vents and half don't...

 

I totally agree with EagleRay. In the past I was considering the Crossfire spoiler too but the fact that it hasn't vent holes/slots or a grid made me prefer the OEM one. Another HDF user drilled kinda slots on the Crossfire and the cosmetic result was really nice, probably even better than as is. See attached pic.
Voltage regulator needs to be cooled, that's not an option, is a fact and an insufficient vent could lead to an expensive damage and failure.
Once you'll have the Thunderbike spoiler you'll also have the chance to make something original, eg. some vertical slots...
