I've got carbon on my SV but only coz I got a good deal on 2nd hand one.

My GSXR got a black one on it.

Pick the one you like best

I asked the same question in a post as I struggled to decide.

Fortunately I got lucky and an OEM one that matched the colour of my bike came up cheap so my decision was sort of made for me.

I think I would've gone for the carbon one despite the words of the fake carbon fibre police on here.......

I'd go for real carbon fibre, but never 'tart's carbon'. If carbon was much more expensive, I'd go for colour matched (in my case, black).

See!

Although I sort of see the point, however it wouldn't really bother me. I might be tempted to remove it if going to a meet though, couldn't take the abuse.
