Default Wifes first bike

So my wife just graduated from her 500cc scooter to a 2016 CBR300R. The entire bike is black. Consequently, a little boring. Does anyone have ideas or resources for pink decals and or wraps ?

Hi, I'm sure the 2015-16 fairings for the CBR250r fit the 2015-16 CBR300r, (but have a look at the parts numbers) Auctmart in the USA and Aliexpress , not too dear but would give the bike a new look, but have to fit yourself

I dont know how you feel about after market parts but..

You can get a full set of fairings for like $400.00 you see them on ebay etc.. all the time. Chinese made but if you get past the whole "made in China" thing , they really aren't bad quality for the money.
Not entirely sure which models they produce for , but worth checking out. Most of them offer some sort of customization option as they are pretty much made to order.
She could choose color , style etc.. pretty cheap way to go. and not out a whole lot if down the road she decides she would like something different.

*edit*
after reading CaBaRets' post again I think auctmart is one of the sellers of the after market fairing kits.
If so..
Then what he said ^^^

She went down in displacement? That's a new one.

My wife has ride like a girl stickers in red on her black CBR600. Ended up having CBR GIRL painted on the tail fairing too.

I got my fairings from Auctmarts in 2016. They're ok. They didn't all line up perfectly, but I'm not sure if that's their fault or the fact that the previous 2 owners had each dumped the bike. The price was on point, however. Think I paid $370 for a full Repsol kit for a 2006 CBR600RR. I've noticed recently that the paint is sun fading pretty badly compared to areas under the seat or under tabs and bolts, and it fell over in front of the shop once so it's dinged up, but from a distance it still stuns. For what Auctmarts charges, I think $350 now, it's worth it to just get another new kit.

Keep your OEM stuff though!

You could consider buying a vinyl cutting machine and create your own decals. That way you could make exactly what you want.
It would be equal or less $$ than new fairings. And you would have a new toy.

Try these guys: https://www.xtreemedecals.com/indexh...90817591891587

They have lots of models to choose from and do individual or complete package decals. Not too expensive either.
