Who is Doctor Glass - Being racers and ride day junkies ourselves, we at Roost Industries were disappointed in the costs involved in purchasing, painting and fitting Race Glass to bikes for track days or competition. Either the costs were too high or the cheaper fairings available just didn't cut the mustard - the fitting was poor and they were weak and prone to cracking. So, we thought - what's the difference between a really good set of fairings and cheaper fairings? It's not as though more expensive brands are more costly to make, they are simply constructed better and from a quality mold that produces a product that fits better. Simple.
After a lot of time and effort we sourced an offshore manufacturer who could get the job done at the right price while still allowing us a high level of quality control so that the end product is a great quality race fairing at an awesome price to the consumer!
Doctor Glass Race Fairings are a great quality, affordable brand of glass, with kevlar re-enforcement on all the mounting points to add strength. They fit up well and look great. At and average of $795 per set (prices vary according to year and manufacturer) Doctor Glass is where it's at for affordable, quality Race Glass. Why would you pay more!

What's the quality like -
One of the most common questions we get asked is "What is the quality like?" We have spent many years in the motorcycle industry, both as racers and as motorcycle mechanics supporting major race teams such as Honda Australia, Redwing Honda Racing, YRDT, Dynoverks Racing Team and Advantage Racing and have over that time used many brands of race fairings, so we know a good set when we see one!
Doctor Glass is an overall good fitting, solidly constructed race fairing with Kevlar and Carbon Fibre re-enforcement as standard that is finished in a special easy grind gelcoat - suitable for every level of competitor and budget from A grade racing to track day regulars.
Viewing of Doctor Glass race fairings can arranged at our shop in eastern suburbs Victoria Australia, please contact us for details.
Carbon bordering -
All Doctor Glass fairings have Carbon Fibre and Kevlar layed into the mold around mounting points for added strength but for only $40.00 more we can supply your fairings with re-enforced Carbon Fibre bordering around the outside edge. Carbon bordering adds extra strength to the fairing and prevents break-up in crashes.
To add carbon bordering please select the extra option when ordering.
Pre-drilled Holes -
Doctor Glass Race Fairings do not come with pre-drilled holes. Fitting race fairings to a road bike is not a difficult process but sometimes pre-existing damage to a bike, such as a radiator slightly out of centre, can cause the fairing mounting position to differ slightly from standard. It is for this reason that we do not pre-drill our fairings, so that there can be some adjustment in the final mounting position. Mount points on the fairings do have recesses in the mold where the holes need to be drilled, but these recessed areas are slightly larger than the hole size to allow a bit of flexibility for ease of fitting.
Is the seat pre-cut?
Foam for Doctor Glass fairing kits that are supplied with race seats is not cut to shape and is supplied as piece of square foam as shown in the pic top right. It is a simple job to mark out and cut the foam to shape and allows our customers to have full control over the seat width and length.
Does Doctor Glass fit perfectly first time?
This is one of the most commonly asked questions we get and the honest answer is "not always". Although we take every care in the manufacturing process of our fairings to ensure proper fitment the fact remains that there are many variables that can throw off perfect fitting of race glass, such as a damaged bike or even movement of the glass during shipping.
We have literally fitted up 100's of sets of glass of varying brands over the years and the simple fact is that even the most well produced glass rarely fits perfectly the first time around, and the fact is that it really doesn't matter too much. here's why...
A bike that is slightly out of square can easily be fitted with our glass because the mounting holes are not predrilled. This means that you can adjust the mount points/holes so that the glass fits perfectly every time. Also, if glass has shifted or flexed during shipping is simply a matter of flexing it back and mounting it in position. Then, once the bike has been run a few times the process of heating and cooling the glass will cause it to "set" to the mounted position so that next time it is removed it will go straight back on again without any hassles. It's as simple as that!
