Hi all,
Is this please an original colour scheme? I believe it was a 1992 import...
Cheers, Tom

Looks like a Chinese fairing kit.

Is there any way to work out what colour it should be, other than maybe on the V5?
Or tell whether it is an original but painted?
Thanks for the help, Tom

On the undertray should be a code which tells you what scheme the bike came out of the factory. Not completely reliable mind, undertrays are changed quite easily.

It's also missing the 'hrc' decals and instead of blue on the front cowl the paint is black.

It is indeed.
No mention of it having a non-original fairing lol!
