Hi mick, the choice is yours really. Minolta is nice but I like the Rossi Nastro style, if going race style. If you do buy them get some piccies up showing the fairings, inner and outer then finally fitted as Im sure there will be interest in this.

The minolta ones look really nice was thinking about them myself or maybe ask if they could do simoncelli replica.
Keep us posted 8-)

Hi, I am getting a set from a ebay seller called "needformotos". I have asked for it to be a RRK clone, and they have done it with out extra charge.

This is one of their links to their items.

The communications have been okay, and the range of fairings look more decent than the usual Repsol clones.

Apparently the fairings are in the UK and so theoretically I should be getting it soon - perhaps after Customs have stamped on it. Knowing what Christmas post is like I am not holding my breath.

Will post pics up.

"This seller is currently away until 27 January 2012"

Might be a long wait if that is correct...

Their loss, really. Anyway, I placed order for min in early December, so fingers crossed mine's at the mercy of the Customs people now.

Be interesting to see if they charge you duty on them. I need a complete set of plastics for mine as i came without a single one. Infact i had no clocks or seats or clock sub fame .....the list is bloody endless! :o
I'll be watching this closely. :grin:
