New Skidmarx bodywork for Kawasaki ZX-10R

Best known for their racing screens, British firm Skidmarx has just released bodywork for the Kawasaki ZX-10R ... Scroll down for the full story

Best known for their racing screens, as used by the championship winners in the British Superbike, Superstock and Supersport series in 2009, Skidmarx also produces a range of race-ready bodywork. Its new kit for the Kawasaki ZX-10R has been developed for Bournemouth Kawasaki to use in the 2010 British Superstock series. Both the fairing and seat unit are manufactured in the UK and are designed to directly replace the original body parts, so they will be useful for track days as well as full competition use.

Produced from lightweight 450gm CSM material that is backed up with woven cloth, the fairing and single seat unit are pre-drilled to fit onto existing mounting points and the kit is supplied with quick-release Dzus fasteners. Unlike the road fairing, the race version has no headlight aperture or indicator mounting points, and instead has an enclosed belly pan with a catch tray to comply with ACU rules. Skidmarx produce their race bodywork in plain white, ready to be painted in team colours; the Race Fairing sells for £260.00 and the single seat unit (with integrated undertray) costs £110.00 (including VAT). A matching front guard is available too, priced at £47.00.

Completing the package is the Skidmarx race screen for the ZX-10R. Manufactured from 2mm acrylic for enhanced optical clarity, it is thinner and lighter than the road version. Standard race screens retail for £39.95 and double bubble version is £49.95.
