Now you all know that (at least most of you do anyway) Matt and Paul are personal friends of mine, but it's never stopped me saying what I think about their products and/or service - good or otherwise - and I tell you, there have been a few words "otherwise" not that long ago!
Although a 400 bodywork set, and totally unfinished from the mould other than final trimming, I was in despair at the 400 guys for slating their kit! Sure, preparation is required before painting, but for such a small outlay, what stood in front of us was a VFR400R that looked as stunning as any 2005 model.
The NSR stuff is equally as good. Again, yes, the panels need prepping before paint, but how many owners are going to ride around on bare bodywork for any extended length of time? At the end of the day, your MC21/28 can look so similar to a 2004/5 Pedrosa (or whoever) RSW it is almost impossible to keep my wallet in my pocket! You really have to see Paul's bike in real life to believe it!
We bought in an Aprilia RS250 race bodykit from a UK supplier at the beginning of the year for a customer, and TYGA's NSR kit is definitely lighter and just as good quality, if not better, but both kits would've needed similar preparation before painting. Buy a back-issue of Performance Bikes, or wait for the upcomming feature of Frank Mitchell's MC21 to see just how good the TYGA stuff looks once a good paint shop has hold of it for a fortnight!
If you want something good "out-of-the-box", buy OEM panels!
