Has anyone fitted a rc211v kit from jap4performance?
Hey,
just wondering if anyone has fitted a rc211v kit form jap4performance, i think it looks pretty trick and im thinking about taking the plunge.
Thought i ought to ask on here first and get the general opinion of the kit and the company.
Cheers for reading

I can second the quality of the Tyga kits - got the full Suzuka kit on my nc30 and I think it really tricks the bike!

Re: Has anyone fitted a rc211v kit from jap4performance?
i done my bike out in the rc211v from jap4, gavs a nice bloke if you get stuck hell gladly help you.
i found the quality of the kit was very good, the painter said he was impressed with it as it needed no prepping, said cheaper kits were a nightmare as they neede sanding and had lumps etc but this didnt,
as for the fitting, it wasnt as bad as i expected, you need to be patient though, some of its fiddly and needs tweaking. i found i had to make a few brackets up myself and a mounting bracket for the choke. also it may be wise to invest in a good battery, its a pain putting the seat unit on and you really dont want to be taking it off too often!!! also make sure you bag up all of the electrics as they will be open to rain etc and i didnt do it but it may be worth spraying the inside of the fairings black as the overall finish will look better! :D basically do it!!, it looks the muts nuts with a good paint job
hope my essay helped

Re: Has anyone fitted a rc211v kit from jap4performance?
thanks for that lads, i sent an email to gav earlier and he quoted me £710 including p&p which i reckon is very resonable. Ill put some thought into it but i reckon im gonna indulge my self and get it. has anyone got any pics of one done, i know there are pictures on the website but id prefer to see one that the forum lads have put together and not a company demo.
Cheers again lads
Damien

im thinking of doing a similar thing but waiting for tyga to bring out their rcv211v 2 seater seat unit which gav has promissed is in the pipe line, probably going to be a winter project with a rothmans colour scheme possible (gone off HM Plant because i still havent seen a rep that looks like the real thing)
