MBX80 full fairing

In the UK the MBX came with the 'bikini' style faring that we know and love, however in the owners hand book there was a line drawing of a bike with a full fairing that hinted there was something much more exotic out there....

Honda officially produced the MBX80 with a full faring, originally marketed in Japan as the 'Integra' perhaps alluding to a connection to Honda's super-sporty coupe of the same name? See the original Honda press release for this model here:

The full fairing model was available in all three MBX colour generations. See all models/ colours here:

MK1 white, black or red. ***NOTE Honda Wing logo on the fuel tank

MK2 White, black or red

MK3 Rothmans blue or red

A few aftermarket fairing suppliers also popped up so you could convert your standard MBX and five it the full fairing look. Two notable mentions are Kitaco of Japan and Pichler Germany.
