    i have a 1988 CBR250R MC19 that i've been fixing up. however a previous owner decided that it needed a new front cowl from a CBR600RR which i now need to fix, would anyone happen to have pictures or measurements for the frame forward of the triple clamps? if so then much appreciated!

    I have an old MC19 frame kicking about.
    I will try to take some photos for you.

    Do you have original MC19 fairing-stay? Front fairing mounts to centre square post here:

    Curved brackets hold headlights. I have extra headlights if you need. I can take some photos from side and get measurements.

    @DannoXYZ has covered the headlight/front fairing mount. A single bolt connects the front fairing to this.
    2 bolts secure this assembly back to some lugs on the main frame just in front of the headstem.

    There is a separate tubular bracket that mounts to the front petrol tank mount bolts which then picks up the top part of the fairing on the windscreen ears, from behind the mirrors.

    I sure don't have one, whoever did their work on this bike decided that it wasn't important to keep. Which is making me very happy while trying to fix their mistakes.
    I'm trying to see if i can get a stay without having to fabricate one. But with all the photos in this thread i should have a much better chance of making one if i need to.

    I might be able to be convinced to part with my bits.
    Send me a pm.
