Exactly why I just use cheap spray cans on mine, two out of the three times I've done it I've thrown it down the track the following meeting.
Sat there on the armco watching people racing having just been knocked off and broken your collar bone is annoying enough without the thought you've destroyed £500 worth of paint.

Added to that if you use the RS fairing mount on the NSR fairing bracket it'll just hit the ground at anything like decent lean anyway....
