If it is free/ cheap I dont' see it causing any harm.
Standard system doesn't get hot enough to melt the fairing / paintwork though..

Have you seen this?

I dont use any personally, but might be a good idea if it saves your paintwork

Re: Aluminium foil on fairings
Ill take some of that tape off your hands :) thank you
Pm me about it.
That ebay link is a rip off in my eyes as you need 2 for the side fairings.
Ans i know it might not get too hot in there, but i cant afford £300 on paint if it did crack it, so a £0 - £20 mod will save me a lot of hassle

After 30,000+ km/s and several roasting track-days the paintwork (original) still looks like it did when I got it.
