Time To Get The Looks Right

The standard fairing on the Caponord is rather polarising. Some love it, some loathe it. I was teetering towards loathing it. The later 04 - 08 model was more my cup of tea. The cost of repalcement Aprilia parts would make the job prohibitive, so I had to go hunting.

The first thing that assisted the transformation was a sub-frame that was on Ebay. It was the right price and local, so i jumped at it.

The remaining panels I was able to source from here and there and all up it cost less than $120. The only issue was they panels were all different colors. The local spray painter came to the rescue and now the Capo looks a treat. While I was there, I also decided to paint the "battleship" grey front guard. Now the Capo looks like a factory special.
