The price of the bike certainly seems genuine ! Laughing

I question : front cowl , front muddy & V panel

Do you see anything else a miss? or is this factory fresh ?

Cheers,

MM!

i tot factory rothmans have a small part of the rothmans logo on the head cowling, the rest on the side fairings?
this one's entire rothmans logo is on the fairing itself.
looks like a good respray job and not fresh from factory

Not a true SP. Body work is not Factory and the rims are not Magtek.

The fairing and seat are almost certainly HK copies. The stickers are all wrong, the seat unit is a one piece item (the rear light surround is welded to the side panels) and the wing mirrors are the HK replicas.

It's missing magteks as Charles identified, the front forks look SE (no blue adjusters) and rearsets are Coerce.

The pipes might be off an MC21 as the end cans are turned slightly outwards (which happens when MC28 cans meet MC21 pipes) and it's missing the passenger foot pegs.

Does look like a genuine petrol tank though.

So looking for cheap trackday bodywork, I bought a set just like this for around $300 on yahoo auctions.

I have to admit, the fit is as good as OEM out of the box (Holes already predrilled) and the paint is actually pretty good. Now the lettering you can tell was done by hand, but pretty damn good. The stickers? Cheap color printer on paper and clear coated over. Mine are peeling already, but maybe I could spend a couple bucks for real stickers to put over. It's actually ABS plastic but not as thick as OEM.

Yes, the tail is one piece and the only other issue besides crappy stickers is that the red and gold stripes that run up the side fairings don't line up with the tail.

I've actually decided to use my OEM plastics for trackday and will throw on the Rothman's knockoff come selling time. OEM's are great, but each panel has a few flaws/scratches/cracks.
