was wondering if anyone knows if the fairings from the x7 will fit my x19 with a bit of modding, or if its been done before

cheers

I've heard that it does. I have an x15 and I'm putting an x19 fairing set on it. I know a lot of people put the x7 on the 15. So I'm sure the 19 would be very similar. The 18 frame is completely different however.

yup, the 15/19 share the same frame.

Ive seen it done two ways, one way, the x7 plastics were crudely ziptied to a 15 frame and it looked like crap (see orange bike)

My bike on the ohter hand, i had to do extensive cutitng/welding, modding, makeing custom brackets, etc. It took a while, but turned out pretty good.
Some sections still look kinda goofy, but i would only attempt it if you have a welder, a few saws, some scrap metal, and a good eye and a sharp mind.

of all the bikes on pbp, mbn, and a few other sites, i'm the 2nd one who did it, and i did it way better than the first person who just zip-tied the plastics on.

got anything to back this quote up?

I agree. Haven't seen a 7 conversion like 5stars. I'm planning a 19 conv. on my x15 with hid headlights and a green underglow. Should look pretty sick when it's done. As for now, found some Rusto metallic graphite paint, threw a pink tip on it, sprayed the busted up body, and called it a day. Sucks that I have to do more work because the kid that had it before me couldn't ride it. New engine coming in on Thursday. Pics of full bike soon. Later.
