I'd leave the bodywork... if you repair it you might do it again! Character.

It took quite a bit of glueing it get it to that stage, the front nose cone came off in 3 pieces aswell as cracked mounts on the headlight. It is quite strong now though, I'll buy replacement panels as and when they pop up at the right price.

Thanks for looking but those ones from China/Hong Kong etc are not OE specs and I've heard good and bad things about them. But after postage you're looking at about £350 plus theres a very good chance you'll get stung by customs.

It hasnt stopped me having a real good think about them though Smile

https://cgi.ebay.co.uk/HONDA-VTR-1000-RC51-SP1-00-01-02-03-FAIRINGS-BODYWORK-C_W0QQitemZ180377073594QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Motorcycle_Parts?hash=item29ff4fb7ba&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=65%3A12|66%3A2|39%3A1|72%3A1683|293%3A1|294%3A50

Don't mean to go off-topic but started looking at the Chinese fairings posted above. Shouldn't that say 'VTR' not 'RVT' on the side panels? Neutral

Back on-topic: Any former chicken strips those tyres may have had just got raped.

VTR1000 is the UK/Euro name

RVT1000 is the US name

Not sure why. They also call the SP1 and SP2 under one single name - RC51.

The link you posted is a US paint scheme, theirs were completely different to UK/Euro ones.
