Anyone know how much a new body kit for a 9S costs? Air box cover, front fender, fly shield, and front spoiler.

Priced it out in Canada...about $800.00 Cdn. (probably about $500.00 US)

Nope...I have a black. I want the additional one to paint and modify. Plus I can switch 'em around. Everyone will think I have two bikes: )

i would like a spare black top cover for the airbox cover. i want to through bolt the buell tank bag mounting pad directly to the plastic cover so it doesnt flop around in 35 mph crosswinds.

I'm sure you all have probably seen this, but there is a company that will create a carbon kit for the 9S. Its pricey, but looks cool. Here is a link to there current auction on ebay for the 9R fairings. I have spoken to the sales guy directly and he said that with a set of originals he could have a set made in a month or so...if your interested.

Looks pretty dope, but only a complete idiot would spend $1,700, plus $200 shipping, on a body kit. I don't care how much money you have: )

Daveinm- Your totally right, I have been going back and forth with the sales guys, explaining that there is a lot less plastic on the S, he still hasn't gotten back to me. It looks like in will be under a $1000.00

That's still insane. I can think of much better ways to spend a grand than on a carbon fiber body kit. Maybe a down payment to add a 12R to my garage; )

If you get everything except the flyscreen(I didn't have that one looked up already) it is 536.95 before discount. This includes the chin spoiler center piece as well.

I have some used yellow plastics in my office. I have a airbox cover and a flyscreen. 125.00 the money goes to Hoban Brothers Race Team. Could probably get the fender and chin for it too. I'd sell it all for 1/2 price of new.
