Re: chinese knock off plastics
auctmart tends to fit well
Ive gotten 3 sets, 1000rr (factory fitment), 600rr (fit was a little worse, but still good) and a 929 set (very decent fitment)
however, people have lots of issues with a lot of other sellers. My 1000rr was wrecked, paint peeled off and plastic never cracked-it was bent in half. HOWEVER, the exhaust heat made the paint yellow, get some good heat shielding.

Re: chinese knock off plastics
I have heard you must buy from Auctmarts. The picture of the blue Moviestar 954rr in some of their auctions on Ebay is actually my buddy's bike here in Indiana. He has been through 2 kits and says they fit great, but plan on waiting a decent amount of time for shipping it from China.
Good Luck... I almost went this rode, but decided against it.

Re: chinese knock off plastics
I tend to like 600rr and 1000rr kits because of the matching tank covers. If you have to paint anything to match, dont do it. 2wheelkits.com sells the fairings pretty reasonably and generally has good quality, stay away from nicecycle.com
brandacat and auctmart are the only ones Id recomend.

Also included an upper not pictured... everything lined up perfect except the tail was an inch off. Speaking now... in the picture things aren't really bolted on too good.[/QUOTE]
