Default Re: copywrite/patent laws

Copywrite law is, from my understanding based around text, so not relevant here.
Patents require something to be documented, patented and technically unique, again I doubt it's relevant.

The main issue you may have is sale of goods or infringing on trademark/branding/mis-representation. Provided you are very clear these are after market items created to fit a given bike, and not original panels I don't see why it would be an issue. Aftermarket fairings are available for all sorts of bikes and most look very close to original panels.


I am, however, very happy to be corrected by someone with an understanding of the relevant law.
