I'm looking to buy a 06-07 complete fairing set already painted black without any words or numbers. Is there a noticeable difference between a aftermarket set and oem? I was browsing ebay and there's a few companies that sell them, but too many choices. Let me know if any of you have experience and fitment with some of those companies off ebay. Thanks

 

For the most part, none of them fit right, and require some hole enlarging to make fit. Also they do not come with insulation on the inside (a couple might) Use the search function, there's plenty of threads on this.

 

I did do a search and didn't come up with much info. Thanks for the reply anyone else?

 

OEM is best! But its also the most expensive

 

Just buy a full set of ABS black plastics off ebay you'll save thousands.

 

lol but in that saving you are likely to have bought a headache as well

 

I'm looking for a fairing part for my 1KF. It's a small top panel covering the fuses. I asked at my local dealer for an OEM price the other day and it was over £100.00. Ok, it comes prepainted with all the strips and all but damn, that;s a lot of money for a few square inches of plastic.
Thinking about it anothe way though, it's unique, not something that's mass poduced to fit loads of other bikes and how much would it cost to have the paint applied if I could even get hold of an unpainted version.
Hmmmm...... perhaps it just makes sense to save up a bit and take the plunge if you want to keep your pride and joy in top nick.
Mine got destroyed by a weep of clutch fluid from the master cylinder. The plastic has simply disintegrated.
The seal kit is on order for the master. At least it'll make sure I don't destroy a new panel when I get it, eventually.

 

Thanks for the replies everybody.
