Does the belly wing serve a purpose?

[sessions]

Does it stabilize the bike at all, just hold the bottom of the fairings together and hide your dog bones? What does it do?

 

[rashad]

Many years ago a magazine reported that the Busa loss 5mph up top with the Lower wing removed.

Mine must be doing something right. Most of the paint on it has been chipped off. I guess if it wasn't chipping the belly it'd be chipping something else.

I just pulled mine off and cleaned all the tar and tiny rocks out of it...then I put it back...so I can do it all over again, later.

They get in the way of the stock centerstand

Mine served as a skid plate this weekend at the bash when my tailgate straps broke and my bike landed on mine, dont know how it kept from tearing any thing up.

Yea it does...

I didn't realize how easy it is to remove and clean until I removed it to re-locate my rectifier. Then re-installed.

It really comes off easy...

Think it has a lot of gravel in it, onbolt your rectifier and you'll need a small broom for the pile that falls out into the floor, lol...

I think they collect old chain lube.

Yeah, Makes my belly hurt tryin to bend over that far.

I liked the looks of mine, but had to remove it to install a centerstand.

Love having a centerstand, great addition to the bike, but I miss the little wing fairing.

It was the precursor for Red Bull! Now you know where they got their motto and why Suzuki keeps it...

 

[EarlyBird]

Yes it does...it streamlines the air under and around the back tire!!!!
