I was finally able to get the fairing i've been wanting for this bike. I found this fairing on Ebay from Triumph Seattle. www.ebay.com/p...

I used your vid to do a fairing install on my ThrxRS. Thank you! Three things I would say to anyone doing one: 1. Take plenty of pics of the up close detail of the wiring inside the headlight housing to make it easier to fit them back in. 2. The turn signal wiring/extension could use a bit of rejacketing to get more "split" between left and right where it drops down to the signals themselves. That made is easier for me. 3. Use locktite green on the fairing to fairing subframe bolts as my bike (given it's a bit modded so maybe that makes it worse) vibrated loose and I lost one screw at some point before catching it and retorqueing them.

Bloody hell. Just bought a Thruxton R that had the cowl on but because I hate the look I asked them to take it off, they told me it would take a week as they’re so busy atm. Now I understand why!!! That’s a lot of work😳

Great video. The fit on this kit is not exactly precision, but it's as good as it will come. I did a couple things differently... I loosened the main wiring harness on the left side of the frame to give the ends as much slack as possible to the headlight. You didn't mention the 2 rachet clips that secure the bottom of the plastic wiring shroud. I found them flimsy, so replaced it with a small nut and bolt. Lastly, I mounted the fairing to the windshield and respective subframe points first before buttoning everything else up. The fit of my kit was so off that I couldn't get the mounting holes to line up otherwise. Hope this helps others.

Thanks for the video, it was definitely helpful. The only issue I had was getting all the wiring to reach and fit back in the housing since the fairing bracket is longer I feel I didn't have as much slack for the wires but you did not seem to have that issue. Probably going to redo it again at some point.

Just a heads up; you didnt need to use the lower clipons to install the fairing i know like 10 thruxton riders who kept them on during their installs without any issues.
