This is what i remeber readibg once upon a time. But still need some help interpting this. Still wondering if i can use my newer dash woth the older style front fairing. And will newer style side fairing pockets(lockable type) work woth the older style fairing.

I have all of my brackets from the 02 just cracked the upper and right side fairing.

I had my 2001 upper faiing smashed in an accident afew years back and picked up a 1992 fairing cheap and it bolted straight on. I am also using all my 2001 dash and fairing inners with no problems just bolts straight on. Just need to use later model dash bracket.

Just to confirm for anyone in the future all fairings seem to be interchangable. The dash just has to use its appropiate bracket. They have different mounting points. Also if you are using an older fairing with newer side pockets make sure you save the accociated mounting points off either fairing. The pocket secure a little different between the old and new.
