I have used Auctmart and Monster Fairings for two bikes (GSXR-750 and Ninja 650). I prefer the Monster Fairings. On the Auctmart fairings, the holes for tabs to be inserted were often closed (or smaller) due to the clear coat spray gumming the holes and hardening. I carefully used a dremel to get the holes back to the proper size. The Monster Fairings fit better. There wasn't a gap between the upper and lower side panel. The only complaint I would have with the Monster Fairings is that the tank cover is about 1/8-1/4in too small. Even in your video, you can see the valley in the faring between the tank cover and the black frame. Also, the black plastic between the seat and frame had to be "jerry rigged" because of the mis-fit tank. The pegs on the plastic piece would not reach the rubber grommets due to the tank cover. Had to cut the plastic peg and J&B weld and extension to make it work. The last thing (and maybe most important) is that they will custom paint/decal anything you want. I sent a picture of fairings that was not on their list and they created it for my bike! You just have to contact them first. How awesome is that. You see something you like on another bike, and the will replicate for your bike.
Thanks for the video! ❤❤ I wish you had made this video before I bought from Auctmarts. I 100% agree with you. Auctmarts does have better-looking fairings and tons of options to choose from but, there were a lot of SMALL issues with the paint, fitment, and holes. Overall, the paint looked good. You mentioned that you got your fairings 3 weeks after purchase. It took me nearly 3 months. After a month and a half, I started messaging them, and they responded after every reply. Once I got the fairings, It took me a while to install them, and It made me very frustrated. I even had to make an extra hole for a screw in my tail fairing, which had me furious 😠. I did break a tab or 2 in the process😭. But for the end product, I was extremely satisfied and quickly forgot about all the issues because of how good the bike looked. If I knew, I probably would have spent an extra couple hundred and went with Monster fairings. I have a CBR1000RR.
The process of fitting everything up properly does take forever. I ended up doing everything over the course of 3 days. It took about 10 hours total. If I have to do it again, I bet I could cut that time in half. One month in, and the fairings are holding up well. My bike is driven to work everyday, and the winter weather and ran hasn't messed up the fairing as all. Thanks for watching!
I got my fairings in November 2023, and I ride mostly on clear and nice days. My fairings still looks new after a few months and I don't have a shelter to put it in, I just use 2 bike covers. Now the belly pan on mines has warped from the exhaust even though they sent me thermal heat shielding. I bought and added extra thermal tape. So for anybody wanting these fairings, keep in mind to buy and add ceramic fiber and extra thermal tape or just extra heat shielding like the video. Thanks Scott for the awesome video! It's very helpful and informative for people looking to get new fairings.
I've had had Auctmarts fairings on my 2013 GSXR 600 for over a year now. I have the exact fitment issues but it doesn't bother me much. Next set of fairings will be monster fairings.
I paid damn near 1k for monster fairings for a first gen busa and they had horrible fitment in the inside you can see all the over spray they chip easily waited 3 months to get them I have an eBay set for a cbr those are higher quality and better fitment for $300 no matter what you go with nothing compares to oem fairings in anyway I spent about 10 hours trying to get those fairings to line up
Fitting them up is a pain for sure. I've seen videos about Auctmarts and Monster on their own, but never where they were directly compared. Sorry your experience with Monster!
I payed 1300 for my kit from monster and they were super fast making my kid and responded to me every time I message them they actually reached out to me a few times to make sure I was satisfied with the way the process was going I've never heard of the brand that you got for everybody here I say go with monster fairings because at the end of the day you get what you pay for not only do they make great fairings they have great customer service
Such a shame to hear, as Auctmarts have a lot more choice of fairings compared to Monster (at least for my bike). I like maybe 1, but only at a push from Monster, whereas Auctmarts I could pick probably 8 that I'd buy 😀. Thanks for the video, dude.
Great review, I have also purchased a set of Auctmart fairings for a 2005 Kawasaki Ninja ZX 1000 and I had pretty good luck with them. The fitment was a little tight here and there but overall okay. I purchased another set from them a month ago for a 2007 Suzuki GSXR 600 hopefully this set will be a little bit better.
Thanks for the feedback. I like the way mine turned out, just wish they would start with higher quality plastics. We'll see how they hold up at the track this year. Good luck with your kit!
I purchased some cheap Amazon owns for 250 for my 09 cbr 600 it was a PAIN to install the upper to the tank was a BITCH and as this the same to install? 😊
Thw whole install was tedious. There was a lot of fitup then remove for trimming or adjustment, then re-fitting. It took a while but everything fit well with the exception of the rear tail lights.
If you went Auctmarts you'll probably be fine. They're just a little cheaper quality. I have been having some issues with their paint though. The green is showing some weird orange underneath, and all the black has permanent water spots now (the black was not clear coated).

Need to get a kit for my 2008 ZX-10R due to some snapped tab pieces in the tail after 20+ years of owning it. This video helps a lot, good stuff.
Thank you! Good luck with your kit!
Time travel huh
@@PissMissile-RR meant to type 15 that’s mahhh bad.
@@Crimsanee all good, I was joking
Great vid and thanks for all the helpful info man!

I'm right there with you! Mine are holding up well so far!

dang dude nice line up of bikes bro. I love the auctmart fairing
Thanks! The Aprilia is my favorite. I got the GXSR mostly for the track but I'm keeping it street legal because it's a lot of fun to ride.
I payed 1300 for my kit from monster and they were super fast making my kid and responded to me every time I message them they actually reached out to me a few times to make sure I was satisfied with the way the process was going I've never heard of the brand that you got for everybody here I say go with monster fairings because at the end of the day you get what you pay for not only do they make great fairings they have great customer service
It won't accept my card, tried 3 different cards

No problem man! The Auctmart fairings are way better looking, but the Monster are better quality. Its such a tough choice. Good luck in your search!

Super helpful thanks for making this !
Great video thank you! Helped me choose for sure !
6500 views that's awesome man!🎉
Awesome video. I appreciate it bro.
So what would you recommend Auctmart or monster fairings if you had to choose?
@@HotSizzleTV_ I’d go Monster. Overall quality is better.
Heat the plastic around the tail lights
Good idea. I'll give it a shot!!
This was actually pretty helpful.
Much appreciated!

Excuse me if I’m wrong, but is that not a 750?
The old fairing kit the previously owner put on has 750 badges on it. Apparently, he didn't know the kit would have those badges. Its a 600 though.
Why it’s after I ordered mine I’m seeing this
If you went Auctmarts you'll probably be fine. They're just a little cheaper quality. I have been having some issues with their paint though. The green is showing some weird orange underneath, and all the black has permanent water spots now (the black was not clear coated).
