    This is a great build! I have been looking for a chrome seat cowl because I have the same bike, if you don’t mind me asking, where did you get yours?? And does this build help with the aerodynamics of the bike? I tend to start getting speed wobbles around 85-90 mph.

      The seat cowl I bought from eBay here is the link www.ebay.com/itm/264669271373?chn=ps&_trkparms=ispr%3D1&amdata=enc%3A1E0xTXEbTQbm17DAWyMKMeg98&norover=1&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-117182-37290-0&mkcid=2&mkscid=101&itemid=264669271373&targetid=1644837436203&device=m&mktype=pla&googleloc=9032139&poi=&campaignid=20389335750&mkgroupid=154492026431&rlsatarget=pla-1644837436203&abcId=9317283&merchantid=113421866&gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAAD_QDh_lylFZt5ziaMOSI1-5Lsi3c
      It’s sold in solid euro 4 colors. I painted the chrome and pin-striping myself to match the fuel tank.
      The headlight fairing does help with aerodynamics as it pushes most of the air over the helmet if you’re tucked close to the fuel tank, however speed wobbles continue to be there in high 80-90. These 650s are not so smooth on higher speeds compared to a super sport bike but for what’s it’s built, it delivers more than enough!

    Way better than I could have done. Nice Work Man! I originally was going to get the Conti but went for the Classic 350 Instead. I have a few sport bikes including a CBR1000RR so imagine my surprise taking that little Classic home the first day 🤪. I'll be getting a Conti next time around. I like the few retro fairing sets available and think the just look better with one. Again nice job and Cheers from Cali 🏖

      Thanks for watching @GrampsD63 , the classics are FUNNN.. I sum it up into raw motorcycling the best it gets, plus the new 350 engines they are much more refined and hopefully you got the one with kickstart. Good luck with Conti GT the only suggestion I can give is to look for older models where the ECU is EURO 4 not EURO 5, EURO4 are much easier to tune and make mods to as EURO5 ECU is stubborn and will throw error codes as you change the headers/ oxygen sensor for example and then it requires a remap. Thanks for your support and ride safe!

      @@GrewalsGarage As I understand it has the first Harris frame very similar to the 650's. My local dealer has two display bikes that are missing various parts. Need to get serious with him and maybe grab them both if the price is right. Then Hitchcock's makes a 612 kit so I would use one engine for that and keep a stock one. 🤞

    • @GrewalsGarage
      @GrewalsGarage  11 месяцев назад

      @@GrampsD63 that is correct the same dual frame as 650 or the new 350s have now. I would grab them both as you said cuz those are hard to come across!!! Hitchcock has all the parts and specially a rocket shape retro fairing that would look super nice on it!
      You can use most of the external parts from 650s like the wheels, forks, clipson, etc and similar to 500cc parts for the engine and 5 speed tranny which are also available on Hitchcock! Hope the deal works for you and would love to see some pictures of them!

    Sweet build man! How is it with heat? Do you feel the engine hotter than before you put the fairing on?

    • @GrewalsGarage
      @GrewalsGarage  11 месяцев назад +1

      Thanks for watching man, nope no issues with heat. It’s designed in a way where air is forced in and out so it doesn’t get trapped plus it’s air and liquid cooled so that helps as well. I explained details on the air dynamics in my part 1 of this fairing install. Check that out if you get a chance!

    by the way have you changed suspension ?

    • @GrewalsGarage
      @GrewalsGarage  11 месяцев назад

      I have not changed the suspension yet, it’s all stock. However, I believe the rear suspension is not needed for a single rider, I would only change it if I was riding it with a pillion.
      The front forks I want to upgrade in future and customize the hub so I can run dual disc brakes.
