Question Anyone ever heard of this carbon company?

Hey guys, I have spent endless hours reading your statements here for years. Some funny, some harsh, but all in all everyone here I believe makes this the best forum for all types of riders, to laugh and learn from. Now I have a question for you all, I bought another hypermotard #2 haha and looking for something special with this one, I came across a company called Race Con that makes carbon fiber out of Australia--anyone heard of them, bought from them, thinking about doing a carbon motard--thanks. Ride on

heres the link

I bought my rear side covers from him to replace the one I busted last year. They've been on there for almost a year now and look as good as when I put them on. Very good smooth finish, a bit finer weave than the stock parts. I just bought the nose and tail cover not quite 2 weeks ago from him so they should be here this week. I'll let you know how they look and post up some pics once I get them.

Got it mounted up and it looks great. Stuff is super light, bubble wrap weighed more than the parts Install was pretty easy once I taped the nut clips on, since the metal tabs are much thinner than the plastic. Only thing I wish is that there would have been 2 more clips to attach the plastic under side piece with, 3 instead of 5 like the stock plastic. I did tweak the metal mount tabs a little to make it fit tighter to the plastic underside. You may not need to as I don't know for sure how tweaked mine might have been from it being wrecked. Here's a crappy pic, will try to take a better one sunday.

Side panels both front and rear, nose, and tail piece all from that same seller above referenced.
