    Will be interested to see how you get on with the fit and quality mate, been toying with the idea of getting some myself, especialy for when the 'Blade gets on track.

    I've got the playboy on order now, only paid a few days ago so over Xmas

    Will let you know how I get on, gotta get my wheels white powder coated soon so more expense :)

    Pcv and custom map happening in a week or two so it's all a matter of tieing it all together

    I rang to try and pay today, but was told that they haven't been released by customs yet!
    I paid for mine on December 6th.

    Hondo had a Chinese Rothmans fairing kit on his RR6 and it looked good. Haven't seen him around the forum for a while but he was happy with his.

    It's always good to get positive feedback from these Chinese fairings. Just imagine for a little outlay you can have a different colour scheme every season.
    Look forward to the pictures and how it all fits together.
    Good luck with it all :)

    Just keep in mind - they will never be concourse standard. If you can live with that then all is well - I can live with it, but i know some peeps are rather "Micro-Fibre" about the whole thing..!

    I can't wait to get them fitted myself.
    I've been on standby for work this weekend and so far i've only been home for a couple of hours since Friday morning, so it isn't looking like it will get fitted this weekend :(
    I still need to get my wheels taken in to get them powder coated white aswell, i've been holding off hoping to find a set of lightweight forged wheels at a reasonable price!

    Your duty charge may come later on mate, they send them out by post to be paid later on with lower value goods, just to give you the heads up! Get some pics up asap mate.. :)
