I am looking for a right hand side rad fairing.  The pin that goes into the grommet is broken. I only need the piece that the pin is on not the whole fairing.  Has anyone seen one for a decent price or just have one they no longer need?

Not sure what you are calling a pin but try Pinwall cycle on eBay.

I think you'll get more response if you refer to that piece as a "pod".

There could be a way to fix it...

A while back someone posted about a process where you could make a mold of a part and recreate it with a liquid plastic.  In your case, it would be a mold of that "pin" from the other pod.  Then you could JB Weld it to where it is missing.
(I know I saved the link for this product/process, but can't find it)

Update.  Found it.  They are showing how to recreate a broken tab.  This should work for your situation.

Do you have the broken off piece?

Is the pod stable enough with just the 2 bolts holding it?

Otherwise that part is $204.  You probably know that already.

When the I/S came out, Honda referred to the "pods" as the lower fairing.
