I haven't seen any reports on fairings specifically from Japan, but I've seen plenty from China. Just search the F3 forum for the word China. Plenty of reviews and photo's

I had the seven star fairing set a couple years back, and if they didn't change the material they used, then they are cheap and will start to warp by the exhaust pipe. The paint will easy scratch, when I was installing them, the allen key fell out my hand and it put a long scar on it. Then when you ride any type of road debri will chip it up very quickly too.

I took it off and sold it for way less than what I paid for it, $600.00 including shipping and sold it for $200.00 in a 3 month period.

Since I did the 97-98 upgrade I keep the tail section and took the front OEM and got it painted.

I would stay it is not worth it, THATS if they sell using the same materials when I got my. I would say it would be cheaper sticking with OEM, shop around on ebay and buy pieces here and there and the part are OEM and get is painted to your likings.

lots of heat shielding and trimming, and i didnt have the warp problems, however the plastics are far from perfect.

Yes, I didn't get the heat shield tip until afterwards and yes, the fitting SUCK big time. It DO NOT lining up correctly, you have to drill your own hole for mounting. I say don't do it, shop around on ebay and go from there.

I wouldn't spend my money on that stuff again. Matter fact I purchase two set, one for my bike and one for the misses. Didn't even install the misses set after I saw how my did.

Sold them both and probably made want I spent for one set.

Like the movies Finding Nemo, remember the quails, "SWIM AWAY", ok I have kids.
