oem plastic is probably gonna be more $$$$. Ebay would probably be the way to go. they usually have some cool customs for less $$$

I agree with Drew. Just be careful sometimes the aftermarket pieces arent quite to the same tolerances as the OEM stuff and might not fit just right. But they will work and will be much cheaper!!! BTW DO NOT, IMO, get fiberglass pieces. Breaks, and cracks WAY to easy!!!

Ebay all the way, you wont regret it the next time you drop it. My fairings are spider cracked from wheelies and I am very bummed about it, the paint doesnt flex as well as the plastic and My paint job is not perfect anymore.

Hey buddy, I laid my bike down the 2nd week I bought it (brand new). What I found out the easiest and cheapest; do it yourself fix up. Cost me under $70! Versus $400 plus for a new one or off ebay? A little epoxy and paint from NAPA, I am satisfied with my result.
