    Order up a cheap chinky kit, worse case you wasted 300quid (prob the price of one Honda panel) and you would prob make most of your money back on re sale.

    Basically what I'm trying to say is its a cheap way to test the water :)

    Being a "BlackBlade" owner there's nowt quite like the gleaming looks of a clean bike.................except it don't stay like that for long!!. Black shows every pissin swirl,stonechip,grit and imperfections you can think of! I,m kind of feed up with cleaning every time I ride her (the Blade) and just recently have had naughty thoughts about go down the chinky route................we'll see at the end of the season but it's looking highly likely.

    OMG anti black propaganda..........maybe I should start to speak my mind about other peoples colour choices.

    So are we gonna start slagging off everyone's pride and joy ?

    Bit by bit this forum is starting to get a bit like the rest...............such a shame.

    Carrera has always been my favourite.I have a spare set of fairings just waiting for when the time is right for a repaint.....ie after a couple of performance mods.

    Sorry to hear about your 'adventure' Si, glad your Ok, go with what colour you fancy, you have good taste. Your bike has always looked ace though........black is beautiful.

    Just out of interest,I do not get swirls on my black paintwork, probably because I do not polish in circles.
