Watch Out
On Saturday I was cruising along and had a vehicle turn left in front of me .Had to lock brakes and eventually went down.Normal scrapes and bruises but ok. Dealership says about 8 to 12 weeks on new fairing ,is this normal or just CYA .I dont want to wait until mid summer to ride again....Any suggestions ????? Jeff

I would think the wait time on your parts should be a matter of days, not weeks.
I am glad you didn't get hurt any worse than you did. The bike can be fixed, even if it takes longer than you wanted it to.

Tape up the fairing if needed and go ahead and ride.
It depends on when they are painting your color.
My painted parts too 12 weeks, then another 12 because for the tourpac had to be reordered. BTW Black Pearl is still a current production color.
