Hi, i've noticed your west china plastics and i want to find out what you think of them in terms of fitting. I need new fairing as i had a bad smash with a tipper truck. Your thoughts would be much appreciated!
Cheers.

Re: fao matty boy
The paint is very thin so it has chipped off in a few places. The panels take a good amount of messing about with to get them to fit.
The seat unit "H" piece does not fit all that well, and you will need to buy a big bag of little black self tapping screws to be able to fit the panels.
But for a cheap stop gap they are very good, from a distance they look great, but when you get up close they are not amazing. Mine where the first ever "WEST" panels as I sent him a load of pics and asked him to make up the set.
If you want to make a "SHOW BIKE" then these are not for you.
If you want to tidy up your bike and your panels are past being repaired and painted then these are ok.
I am thinking about getting shot of mine and buying some Tyga panels. Not the RC211V but normal looking ones.
