Author Topic: WANTED - Glee XT beak or standard under light faring piece (Read 3901 times)

Smash the beak off my 2015 XT. It's all sharp and stuff so needs something done with it.
If anyone has a beak after De-beaking or has the no beak fairing piece that comes on the non XT model I would be interested.

Thank you

Sorry to hear of the damage but do the world a favour and replace the ridiculous thing with the standard Glee trim

I am pretty indifferent to it but cost will govern what goes back on!

I would be interested in the cost of the infill panel and how much of a ball ache it is to change.

I may consider setting up a charity for those unfortunates who bought the Glee XT without looking at it from the front

Seriously, It would be useful information

Pretty sure there is someone on here that has already done it.

The cowl from Fowlers is a bit on the high side

How much...?!

The price is punishment for choosing a beak , call it a fine of some sort .

OEM plastics are stupid money. The engine cowl is something like £200

I've got one you can have a bit cheaper than that

I may have a look if I can fabricate something.... I have a wee light bar that may sit in the space.... Might look crap though.

Hi Kayaker413, I cracked my beak quite a while back. I'm surprised it's not been mentioned

Anyway if it is just the black plastic part, I think it was about £25.00 from Suzuki dealer? A whole lot less than I was expecting it to be.
