I am ready to install the nose wheel fairing on my 9A using the new mounting brackets (U-713C-R and U-713C-L) and the new style fork which gives an extra 1? clearance between the fairing and the damper nut. I would like to take advantage of this extra clearance and try mounting the fairing higher than normal to increase the ground clearance, even ?? would be worthwhile. Has anyone done this? I suspect that raising the fairing may cause interference problems where the gear leg enters the top of the fairing. Alternatively, maybe the fairing should be mounted in the standard location and the bottom of the fairing cut away and then re-glassed to give extra ground clearance. I realise any changes to the standard design are likely to cause a speed penalty and I can accept this within reason.
Any comments would be appreciated.
