  2. Better say what colour dude, and whether early or late.

    Sorry to hear about your moment. I hit a grouse on mine a few years back. Didn’t half wake me up. Buggered the fairings as well. They’re hard to get hold of in some year / colour combos but try eBay in France, Italy and Germany too.

  5. Don’t do it. I got Chinese fairings for my 749 and they were AWFUL. Mouldings were poor, fit was poor, colour match was poor and the fonts for the logos were way off.

  6. No worries. It's a fast "fix" but a poor one. TBH 749/999 fairings are getting very expensive and very thin on the ground. I spend over a year searching for a RH upper / lower / splitter for my old 749s and ended up with a used 749 (not S) on the right side. Yellow are admittedly harder than red but they're all getting up there. Literally becoming a "money can't buy" item. Mirrors... oh god, don't talk to me about mirrors. :tired_face:

    My 999 gets very sparing use, for exactly the reason that some myopic spaz enjoying a FaceTime chat or a picnic-at-the-wheel could have me off at any moment.

    I've been struggling for 2002 748 upper and lower LH fairings and eBay DE and FR came good. I think it was @900streetfighter who deserves the kudos for teaching me to look there. It's a shocking situation really, clean / mint 749/999 are going to be unobtanium in not too much longer and if you drop one... game over. Scary times.

    Makes me wonder why I like old bikes, powered by rubber bands with unobtainable cosmetic parts... by the way, anyone with a LH yellow fairing for a 1994 yellow Superlight 900, PM me!!!! :joy::joy::joy:

  7. Hi does anyone know if a left hand bottom fairing from a later 05 will fit my 03 749?
    Thanks for the info and links so far people, gutted the bike was immaculate
     
  8. No the splitter / aerofoil / barge board mountings are different :-(
     
  9. Worth asking on 999/749 Facebook group and Ducati for sale group.
    As said 03-04 and 05-06 fairing parts don’t go together properly. Not needing parts with graphics is a bonus.

  10. Hi I will check the Facebook group, what is the Ducati for sale group?
     
  11. Just to politely and respectfully clarify that isn’t a 749/999 and it was specifically my first hand experience that the yellow Chinese fairings for a 2003 749s from MFS were terrible. I wouldn’t want anyone to waste their money on those, perhaps there are other distributors with higher quality control and other models that are better served? Mine is only an opinion but it’s based on first hand experience and my own wasted money.
