Those swingarm covers are from Magical racing.....Japan. Do a search on Magical racing. Their windscreens are sick!!!!!CF molded into the screen. It will run ya about $300 though.......They dont make a swingarm cover for the 954.

I think that looks bad ***....but that just my opinion and I will never do a chrome/polish bike again. I would consider something like that on my next bike.....Its your bike man, just like the DARE people say "DARE to be different"

Sorry to get off topic, but is that a penske shock? Feedback?

Topic, I'm both ways on the cf. If I had to choose, I'd probably go powder coat to match the frame.
