916 Track-day Nose Cone

Discussion in '748 / 916 / 996 / 998' started by TNR, Nov 3, 2018.

  1. Quick question:

    Do I need to remove the headlights to fit a race nose cone on a 748/916/996?

  4. Not always. I fitted mine over the lights without a problem.

  5. Different cones, different amount of room?

    Is it a pain removing the lights? Probably the safer option as I'm a crap rider and chances of crashing on the track are high!

  6. Removing lights, once the nose cone is off anyway takes approximately 30 seconds.

  10. 848/1*98 is a fucking pain in the arse! I have modified my Fairings and seat unit to be quick release so I don’t need to take the exhaust and tank off to remove the seat unit!
