I don't know whether to laugh, cry, or applaud! Laughing

Laugh because it's great to see you hacking about a 23 year 2-stroke with the enthusiasm of a 16 year old with a "Fizzy", cry because I love standard looking NSR's, especially 16's and 18's as they are so few and far between these days (and now there's one less!*), and applaud because of what you've so far accomplished with it!

The fairing, in an ideal world, would need to be lower at the front. The edges of the side-panels should run parallel to the frame spars. I would imagine, to keep decent ground clearance, you would need to hack a section out of the rear of the belly pan "wings" to clear the exhausts. This may allow you to raise the back of the fairing and drop the front slightly, evening the appearance up. Fitting a front fender will certainly help clean the look up though. My MC16 also looks way off with the RS fairing and no fender (although, funnily enough, looks bang on with the F-III stuff). With some of Si's jiggery-pokery though, I reckon my RS fairing will look fine. It's a much earlier version than yours though, far more suited to the NSR frame I would say. The ND/NF chassis is a lot more like the early NSR than the NX.

*Mind you, I can't really talk, but at least mine has the full compliment of HRC bits, and after many moons of contemplating, I think I may paint it the same as the red/white as Kobayashi's NSR in the MC16 brochure now. Smile
