Looks really nice. Where did you get the carbon? I got mine from zero limits and the quality is excellent, as long as you are prepared to wait!
If it's broken, it's not fixed.

As I say aren't cheap but they do come down quite a bit with best offer, the bits took 5 days, ordered Thu arrived Tue, from Germany. :eek
Looked at Zero Limit stuff but was put off by the delay in getting the bits and a couple of reports that complained of different thickness of carbon

Nothing's changed with zero limits than !

I second the German eBay stuff its impressive, i emailed them told them what items i wanted and would they apply discount for bulk and not going thro eBay.

I'm pretty sure there are two others who do this sort of stuff google king carbon he is uk based and Is very good I got a few nice carbon bits from him for previous projects. There are also an eBay shop called Infiniti whom I have also had a few bits from yoke covers etc

I thought the quality from zero limits was really good, but the delay put me off using again. Since then i have bought even better quality stuff for my tuono v4 from conquest carbon in england.I askedfor twill flat carbon and it arrived within a few weeks. Really pleased with the finish, as it matches the original aprilia carbon already purchased.

I'm not normally a fan of carbon on the Fazer, but that looks good. Just don't overdo it!
