    Can't decide if or not to have my 2012 blade done with the HM Plant livery, any one out there had it done and anyone know a good company in East Yorkshire that could do it

    What colour is the bike? If its black you might be best just getting HM Plant Sticker kit?

    It's a black one, leaning towards the HM plant as it will save having the wheel colour changed it would be the vinyl sticker route i'd go down and have them lachered

    If your gonna do the HM plant try and see if you can get the padgetts TT HM plant from last year. It was stunning.

    Get a set of Chinese fairing and save your original ones.

    Sorry dude, just thinking out loud...

    Have you seen SimonRR's bike ? He got a race replica fairing kit done from photos he sent the fairing company and they just sent it back all done and looks the nuts !
    Plastic is as good as oem too apparently, but a lot cheaper than getting yours paint jobbed and being restricted if you come to sell it again ! His post was "Chinese fairing came today" !

    I currently have a chinese hm plant set of fairings on my 2007. Quality is OK, don't forget it is £300 as opposed to thousands for an oem set and so the quality isn't quite as good, but the oem isn't worth what Honda and co. charge. I think they are worth the money and then some, and of course you still have your originals to put on if you want to sell the bike.

    Plastic looks great but it does shatter on impact.........
