    Default Race fairing stays

    Hey guys, I've been having issues with my no-brand race fairing stay. When everything is mounted and bolted down, the fairing stay has some play in it in a way that it is able to move side to side. It's annoying because once i hit long straights, it starts to wobble and vibrate like crazy.

    So I want to know that since there aren't any nuts on the other side of the 2 bolts that hold the fairing stay, do stays like Vortex/Graves have this same issue of having some movement once its bolted in or are yours solid?

    My Graves is pretty damn solid. Flexible enough not to break in a crash, but it doesn't move when I'm riding.

    vortex and graves are both good, I crashed with my vortex and cracked it. the material is very thin but it bent back to shape and I welded it back together. The graves is solid though but will bend if in a crash and bend back good product but i think 50bucks more than the vortex
