Default Austin Racing Fairings

Have any of you guy's had any experience with these fairings ?

BMW S1000RR FULL FIBREGLASS RACE BODYKITS AS USED BY JOE BURNS BSS - austinracing


I'm new to BMW and I'm building the 1000rr into a dedicated track bike and would appreciate any feedback on these fairings.

Cheers B.T.

Armour hasn't updated their website in several YEARS.

Their US distributor is Woodcraft (makers of rearsets/framesliders/etc.)
BMW Pro Series - all - www.woodcraft-cfm.com
Armour makes 4 different sets for the RR:
Superbike Kit
Superbike Kit w. Stock exhaust
Supersport Kit (uses stock seat)
Supersport Kit w. Stock exhaust
Good luck!

BTW - California Superbike School uses these fairings on all their bikes.
Very nice looking stuff.

Quick question QCD since you seem to know your stuff regarding these sets, the wholes for the screws have to be drilled in? How does the attachment to the bike go. Thanks

Nothing but good things to say about the Armor Bodies Pro Series Supersport with the stock exhaust. They match up perfectly. I wish I would have waited a month or so to order though. I bought the set for the stock exhaust and now I have a full Akra. Oh well. Still looks killer!
