Where to buy carbon fiber tree cover and guage cover ?
I want to buy a carbon fiber triple tree cover and speedo / tach carbon fiber cover for my 99 r6. Where is a good place to find these 2 things other than e bay. I dont trust the quality of e bay stuff like that, it looks cheap sometimes and you can really never tell. I cant see to find any shops that carry it. thanks

raydogg, here is a link from eBay where I got mine for my 03 R6.
He has this one for 99. I think this is one of the best cover on eBay and sells it for $15.00 w/ $5 shipping. He ships from Hawaii but he'll get it to you within 4-5 days. The quality of the item is superb, it is real carbon and uses a UV protective coating. He is also a great guy you can trust on eBay. I had mine for almost a year and it still in great condition! The carbon fiber quality is really nice, looks 3D...it is the real thing!
ok, bear with me here. Why would you want to put extra parts onto your bike? I thought most people bought new parts (like a 520 convo kit to save weight, or new rearsets, carbon hugger, carbon front fender) to lighten their bikes, not to add more on. Granted I know its a small piece and probably weighs next to nothing but its the principle of it! Not trying to be a dick, just a random thought.....

it's for mainly looks & protection my friend. I'm no racer nor into competition so weight savings is no importance at this time. And plus the thing weighs like nothing at all and it's real carbon.
And main reason why I bought it too is I had scrapes over it from my lowside last year and that was a cheaper alternative than replacing the whole triple tree

besides, I heard that carbon fiber bits (like stickers) add 5 extra hp EACH!!!!
**mental hp that is**

Thanks to the guys who put the ebay link up so Polish kids like me can eat up others info!! I was looking to get one, and I'm a pretty big ebay, you can get everything!!, but I was doubtful about the covers I saw. Thanks again.
