Yea,a lot of people think I have a "TON" of money in my bike but I don't. I got everything off Ebay or the Wera board for cheap.

I've used Sharkskinz back in the day. Always a good product but aren't they fiberglass? Oh and how do you like the "look" with the less pieces,I thought it looked kinda "funny" with less pieces,of course if you're only painting one or two colors,it probably doesn't matter.

here's another kit I really like,

Having less pieces makes track days a little easier. It also makes disassembly and reassembly a little easier too (something that I've done a lot of in the past few months). But I like the look, especially with the D-zus fasteners holding the lower on, makes the bike look like it has a purpose. And yeah, they're fiberglass. All of my bodywork is flat black, my tank is the one form my avatar.

I'm just not sure about a tank cover, I'd rather get the bodywork and repaint the tank. Wouldn't it look funny to have the "tank" sticking out too far?

Should see whats out there for a 99TLS, may be cheaper than having mine painted.

I looked at everything they had, and didn't see anything for the 07-08 600rr. They don't have anything for the 929 or RC.
