I was thinking that, the guy says he'll mark it as a gift, but I'm not sure if that gets round the taxes or mot :smt012

i think they can mark it as a gift but if the customs think its value is a certain amount it don't work and you get stung on delivery or they hold it at customs so be careful.

If you look in the guys shop he has loads for all different bikes.

He is based in China so the quality won't be great (its ok I import from China so I can say this).

You can send any item however large or expensive and mark it as a gift, who is to say its not a gift. Mind you I would be well chuffed if someone gave me a fairing kit as a gift!

Yer the quality is naff, thats why I ride a Japanese bike. I only sell Chinese ones.

And yes I do feel guilty about it, but Ovaltine helps me sleep at night and it was this or be an estate agent.

First ZXR kit I've seen, but I've noticed loads of VFR400 sets on there (err, probably because most of my ebay searches are for 'vfr' :oops: ).

Might I suggest a quick look on http://www.400greybike.co.uk - I'm sure someone there will have bought one! I'd be very surprised if there were no threads about them!

They are all for such random bikes, would have had one for my ZX7R had they made it. It cost me £100 for a tatty race fairing and £400 to get it sprayed!!!!!
