So I got a painted inner fairing put on my bike today. Good plan. The guy paints a fairing, comes to me and installs. Really nice guy. He finishes, then says he has good news and bad news.

Good news - the fairing looks great. Bad news - he painted an '07 fairing (with a hole for the throttle cable I don't need) for my '08. Gave me the option of letting him paint another one and make it right or keep the one with the hole for $100 less.

Should I keep the one with the hole? $100 in my pocket for a hole I can't see unless I look for it. . . Will water go down that hole and create a problem?

Really nice guy who wants me to be happy. Would definitely recommend to other guys in Florida or south Georgia.

 

Put a plastic or rubber plug in it and save $100.

 

Ditto on what Bikes said.

 

I'd keep it. Never know when you'll need an extra hole!

 

I'd get a new one; the exra hole would kill me.

 

Get the new one, sell me the old one. I wouldn't mind the cable hole. But it'll eat you up inside knowing it's there.

 

I would just plug it...You're not gonna see it anyway

 

Anyone know what size plug is needed or a part number?

 

Keep it !!!

 

put a button in it to open your garage door! you'll find all the details on this forum to do it!
