I've never ordered new ones but as far as the quality of the product I had them on my gsxr and I have an extra set for the superhawk and no complaints about the quality. Just my 2 cents. Oh and if you're planning on doing repairs or anything custom fiberglass allows you to do just about anything...

If you looking for a race rear I will give you a good deal on one. It is to high for me I need to get one that uses the stock seat. It is like 2 in taller

My lower fit perfectly with no problems for 3 years. Used a hole saw for the oil-level bubble.
parts411.com had a good deal at the time.

i have a sharkskinz lower on my bike and have had no problems. when i got it painted the body shop guy told me he was impressed with the quality. one thing though, the heat shielding on the lower is not thick enough. i had to wrap my pipes and add extra heat shield to the lower

Sharkskinz.com has the lower fairing for a little over $100 cheaper than Parts411.com
