You go first. I'm leary.

I'd expect some minor fitment issues.  Other than that a lot of the Chinese fairings are pretty nice for the price.

The RD500LC came with a set of unmounted Chinese bodywork. The paint wasn't too bad, certainly presentable but as you suspect there are minor fitment issues. I couldn't use the seat sides because the mounts were too far out. I had to find originals.
For the money though, it's a deal.

It's tempting and it's a good price IF the stuff bolts up. Don't forget you still need to paint your fuel tank to match their paint.

I was recently quoted $3500 to do a show quality paint job on the RZ350 I am currently working on. It did require some plastic repairs and had one switchgear dent to be repaired on the tank. That's a lot. After getting some "assistance" with the tank dent (or using a no dent tank) I will be doing the rest at home.
