I would not buy a paperclip from DHgate, Its all Chinese knockoffs/ripoffs.

I agree, you get what you pay for.

Buuuut......

I ordered some for 2 reasons :

1) I'm broke as fuck.
2) My buddy who got me into riding 7 years ago (who owns 4 sportbike Kawis) told me that they're pretty good. In his experience of doing mechanic work. He says its hit or miss. He installed 7 kits and only 2 fit somewhat badly.

I'll probably make a thread documenting the install and thoughts.

Nicecycle fairings are Chinese as well, but they're way better than your typical chinese ones, though not perfect.

Thanks.

This may be one of those moment where I say, "Damn I should have listened".

Only 1 way to find out.
