I picked up an 87 fz750 and its missing plastic. It seems hard to find used stuff. Anyone got any great ideas? Can faring's from other years or models fit, so I can expand my search? Any and all help and suggestions appreciated. Joe

I'm pretty sure that 87 an onwards is the same plastic. The top fairing from 85-86 fits but missing the holes for triangels on side that is on 87 an newer FZ. Petroltank is same 86 an newer, fits from 85 but petrolcap is different so you need that too if you want a petroltank from 85. I have used a petroltank from 85 with tankcap on a 89. Have fitted a 89 top fairing on a 86. What is diffrent is sidepanels under seat and around rear light - 85/86 and 87- is not the same.
Hope that helps. More questions.. ask again.

Thanks for the info. Any good leads on farings? I need a Left Lower. Joe
P.S. I found that thread on fairings. If anyone has some used scraped up stuff I'm interested.

O.K. heres my idea. I take what ever junk fairing I can get my hands on and glue up from the back any cracks or whatever and then vinyl wrap them to help hold them together. Has anyone seen a kit? Joe

That could work -or do what some others have done. Get some new f/glass 1FN (early) style lowers from Paul at mid-Norfolk mouldings and go for the early look which I prefer.

So, Turns out its an fz700, I found a headlight fairing online, found the left and right lower and upper side fairings online, and bought the fairing blisters from mid-norfolk.

Result! When you say 'blisters'do you mean the top fairing hand deflector thingies?
