Worst fitting race glass....

I have ever seen has to be the brand that came with my bike when I got it. This sh!t is horrible. I believe the company is E-racing fairing or something along those lines. NOTHING lines up. It's too stiff and won't flex at all. In fact it just cracks and breaks. The one piece tanks cover doesn't even line up with the upper fairing and the lower doesn't line up with the upper. I don't even see the point of them giving you the "indents" in the glass where the stock stuff mounts, cause they don't match up to the damn things anyways. I am sooooooo pissed right now. I have a trackday on Saturday and Sunday and I can't get it to fit worth a damn. I'm not about to put my street parts back on and ruin them again. ARGH!

call catalyst and see if they can overnight a set. Will cost a few $$$$ but they have a good fit.

If I had the money I would do just that. I'll tell you one thing though, my next set will be a set of Catalyst. I'll have to find some way to make it work tonight cause I have a funeral to attend tomorrow and will be leaving for New Mexico tomorrow night.

Re: Worst fitting race glass....

Which is more important, having the holes line up so you can screw everything together, or the holes being small enough so that the head of the screws will hold the plastics in place?
