Swapping plastics

[Darmaduke]

Hi guys...

Will the plastic from a 1986 fit on a 1988 model?

Other than cosmetic differences will it all fit?

Thanks

Hi Scott.
The fairing is different on the '88 than the '86.  It is larger and the mounts are different.  All other plastics should be interchangeable (side panels, lower fairing cowling and rear fender cover).

Hi Dean

I am rebuilding the 88 I have but can get a 86 parts bike.
The plastic on the 86 is much better (prefer the red and white anyway)
The plastic on the 88 is very bad.

Is it possible to make the 86 fit?
Mod the front clip a bit?

hi Scott, i am always looking for '86 body parts and fuel tanks
if you get that parts bike and want to offset some of your costs send me a pm and let me know what parts you want to let go
thanks!

Id be interested to see if you do it.  Contemplating a smaller 1100 fairing for mine.

I wonder if the frame, light, plastics from the earlier bike would all just swap to the later frame.
