These panels for £150?

Thinking about removing my originals and using these.

Well that very much depends.

If this is for your track R6, then keeping the costly OE panels safely hung up in the garage might be a smart move as each panel can be worth a few hundred pounds new.

That said I've seen some aftermarket panels that fitted brilliantly, and some that took hours to fit, never lined up right and were a complete pain in the backside to take on and off.

Ideally you'd buy some that were a fairly good fit.

They do say that but no one but apparently it doesn't apply to d1ck's on R1's in the soaking wet rain at charlies 2, Cadwell park.

Yes I am bitter about it over a week later!
