china plastic

Sat Jan 14, 2012 6:52 pm » Post: #1 » Download Post

sooo, my new Terra SP skinz arrived today, took a week in transit and for the price $450 shipped it's not bad, well packaged and actually fits together, however it is still cheap China plastic. Now I got to start looking for hardware, most of it is missing from the bike, that might be harder to find around here than plastics.



Ray Charles could have done better paint

I bought a set of Rothman colors for my MC28, and I was shocked at how good they turned out, bot fit and finish. One exception would be they printed out the Rothman stickers on a home printer and barely shot clear over them...

I got mine from ****************. I'm a picky bastard, will probably install and wetsand the plastic, can't stand all the bubbles and runs in the clear, but like I said, there was no cheap alternative, once my second bike showed up and I had one look at it (only seen pictures prior) I knew the fairings were beyond repair.

Thanks for the review on the plastics. I've been considering taking the plunge as some of my fairing pieces are missing.

Sounds like a bit of wet sanding will help with the final finish too.

Sorry, didn't realize that mentioning the name of any business that sells there was forbidden. However I did the search and that seller does not have a store outside that place, so their loss... Also I asked that they not install their company sticker on the plastic, in the photos they put it on the front fairing next to headlight, under the clear coat. My fairing arrived without it as I requested.

My intention for the Terra bike is to put it together and sell it in next few month, use the money to fix up the other bike, not sure I would buy the China plastic if it was a keeper, much rather get some kit from TYGA and do custom paint. But I had to know, had to try it and I'm broke, my feeling is you get what you pay for.
