    I made no reference to looks because I would come out on top - hands down.

    What I actually meant is that 31 is the opposite (or transposition to be precise) of 13.:)

    Apart from the spelling it's not too bad!! :D

    Did he not notice the spelling on the listing on ebay or wherever he got it from?? There is plenty of race reps out there I've seen with similar spelling mistakes....I actually think it's on purpose to avoid copyright issues??

    When yours arrive just double check they aren't 'Caserole Honda' :D

    Nup. @Boothman has already ordered that version to take his two-year-old 'brand new' microwave back to the retailer!:D

    Copyright issues? You can't copyright 'racing' because it is a word of general use and not 'brand identified'. It was just a basic imbecile's error, AND the fact that a proof wasn't offered to the purchaser.

    I think you'll find 'aprilia racing' is a brand name!

    Yes, in context with its logo. But in the instance on this fairing the two words are distinctly separate and do not and cannot be taken to be identified as the trademarked 'Aprilia Racing' logo as reproduced below:

    Just sayin:D:D

    That's the new style logo......the other is the old style logo that has been on Aprilia's road and racing bikes forever!

    I should know ive had three of them.

    Just because it's a word it doesn't mean it's not a logo!o_O

    Haha I agree......but, it's not because they're thick or imbecile's that there are spelling mistakes on copy or counterfeit goods.

    Has no one ever seen the Lucky Lucky Man walking down the beach in popular tourist locations selling 'Roy Bon' sunglasses?

    No one's that thick, they do this to actually avoid being lifted for selling fake goods.......they're not fake Ray bans officer, these are genuine Roy Bons! :D

    Get a guy that Plastidips your rims (or do it yourself). You maintain your rims with the original colors, and when you chose to, you can easily peel of the Plastidip.
