Chinese parts.
I saw the following on another forum and thought it worthy of re-posting.
About a month ago, I posted that my son had slid off his Honda Blackbird after hitting a patch of, what looked like, hydraulic oil,
Sadly, the plastic on the bike was badly damaged on one side, and as the body work is not easy to find for a 1998 Blackbird, he decided to buy a full set from China for a fraction of the price of the Honda parts, (Which are apparently no longer available)
The parts all arrived yesterday, and today, he and his wife set to to fit it all. Firstly, the box contained every single part made of plastic. The build quality was excellent and the high gloss finish was excellent too. Fine points included having the decals set into the plastic and glossed over, rather than stick ons.
Some parts were a bit difficult to work out where they should go, but all in all, extremely pleased with the complete job.
Chinese parts are most certainly getting much better and worth looking at, as well as saving a small fortune
