That's about €450, not too bad, also considering there's no extra painting needed.
Honda charges way more, if it's obtainable at all...
I've got some screens here, but as we are litterally on opposite sides of the world, the postage would be killing

Yeah I’m pretty happy with it. I’ve been away so only had a chance to go for short ride and still tracking down a screen.

It was from aliexpress and the seller was Aivkillo Store. They had pretty good communication right the way through and had no problem matching the original paint code and colour when I sent them a few pictures.

Total cost was $805 NZD delivered to me.

Full ABS plastic and it seems pretty strong.

I can't tell that it's not original to be honest.

Rob seems to be thinking about restoring his bikes now

Parts are getting harder to come by all the time, the plastics in particular, some spares do no harm....

That looks better than just reasonable, how much did you pay? Was this Aliexpres? Do you have a sellers name?

The aftermarket fairing kit from Alixpress arrived last week and I’ve spent the last few days getting it all together. 

All in all, the quality is pretty good, especially the paint job. Some of the fitment was a bit off and I needed to do a bit of fettling to get a couple of the lights in place. Some of the lines aren’t quite right and a few tabs are a bit fragile (I broke a couple) but I don’t know if a used set would be much better.

It didn’t come with a windscreen but I have found an outfit in Australia that makes brand new ones.

Considering it is almost impossible to source second hand fairings this is the next best thing. Anyone who is unable to get hold of fairings should consider going down this track although I’m unsure whether they sell individual items or just the whole kit. For the price it’s probably easier just to get the whole lot anyway.

Looks pretty good from 2m away though

Yep, both Shane and Rob Hogan are familiar names, both still can be found in the members register.
Weren't very active, some 12 years ago, so nice the bikes still exist. I hope you can get them in a presentable state again!

Well haven’t been on here for a while but have just picked up 2 additional 750 Hurricanes that I believe once belonged to Shane, and possibly someone named Rob Hogan before that, one is the Rothmans CBR and another grey one not presently running that now makes 3 bikes 2 running well and one to try and get running. Not sure how many are left in Australia but would be interested to know of any other Aussie owners out there
Cheers from Australia

And then they come to us as being the source? No thanks, I think it is more important that those who want and/or need a manual for this increasingly rare bike can get it and so keep as many on the road as possible!
