The ones on the top fairing are stickers. The red on the fairing and tail sections are painted (and the bottom corners of the top fairing) with stickered black and silver (in places) pin striping to cover the joints.

Black ones are faster

Black ... black like the sky ... black black black

Do you need a full set of plastics or just bit's and bobs to sort the tail section out ??? .... Post a pic of the bike as it is

ive got all the fairings other than the seat unit as the bloke had put on an r6 seat unit, still at work at the mo but ill post a pick tomorrow.

to be fair colours not that bad just a crap job and would rather take it back to standared. although have looked up a couple of pics of them in black and got to admit if going standared isnt to easily done then think black it will have to be.

good shout!

They look better with silver or graphite wheels
