Quick question on rebuild

Hey all. I had a question on a downed 2010 zx6r I am looking at bidding on. So far I have just looked at pictures of it (its right by my house so I plan on spending some time looking it over before I place any bids). Did some research and was wondering if there is a plastic cowl that covers the tail frame that goes under the fairings? My 2007 zx6r has a plastic cowl under the fairings, but from the pictures on the auction site, it looks like the fairings on this 2010 are just broken off and leaving the frame exposed underneath. I don't have any experience rebuilding this model year so I was just looking for some help.

If you take a look at the pictures, you can see the tail frame exposed. Just wondering if there is another plastic cowl that is missing here.
Thanks!!:sigh:

Yeah there are definitely plastics missing.

In the pic I posted it looks like it's missing the green one and the one below it too... that is not going to be cheap at all...

I already have a set of fairings in mind, Im just wondering if there should be a plastic cowl covering the frame that the red arrow is pointing to, along with a fairing that would go over everything. I think you may have misunderstood me. :O Nice bike tho!:bigthumb:

That is why he posted a picture. It is the same bike, different colour combination. Spot the differences :coocoo

This is one of them on its' own:

Yep I know about that piece, just wondering if there's anything else underneath. With the 07-08 there are two layers of plastic over the rear frame. it goes frame, plastic cowl, then the outer fairing. So when you take the fairing off, you still can't see the frame. But thanks for the reply, I'm assuming from the information you guys gave that it's just pieces of outer fairing that cover the rear frame. Thanks for your help! :)

No there is nothing else underneath. The 07-08 has an undertail exhaust and uses some plastics as heatshield, that's why it has more layers back there :)

Yep exactly what I was thinking. Sounds great thanks!
