Does anyone have any photos of a white repsol fitted to an RC51 until I see one fitted I'm a bit apprehensive about pulling the plug and getting it, I only have the photo's from the supplier, see below.

In the past 22yrs of riding and the past 3 on an RC51, I have never seen a bike with these graphics, I like these more than the orange/black, their just different.

I never saw why people like to have bodywork painted in a livery that the RC was never raced in. I think the Repsol ones look the worst.
I agree, the repsol looks rediculous. Might as well paint "I'm a poser" on the side.
The exception to that is the RC51's that have been painted like the RC30's. This doesn't look too poserish, mainly because it doesn't have tons of sponsor stickers on it.
Hell they stoped making our bike years ago. And 99% of us are not being paid to race. So if you like em buy em. I kinda like the look. So sick of the stock stuff I could vomit. Just my
Don't buy these fairings! I tried to fit a set on my RC5 SP1 -- headlight mounts all cracked, tail fit poorly, didn't even try to fit the side fairings. This stuff is junk, period. It's sitting in the rafters of my garage. I'm resurrecting the OEM fairings, getting them painted Joey Dunlop red. Good karma, brother, learn from my mistake. Yes, they were the auctmarts brand.

Mine are chinky fairings and fit very well, no issues but took a little bit of jiggy but nothing major.
As for the original post. I did look at those and thought they looked nice, didnt want the single seat pod though. I almost orgasmed when I first saw them, I thought they were a 88 RC30 rep like the one posted above.

Communication was good, the plastic bit with went underneath the headlights didnt fit very well but they sent another free of charge which fitted fine.

As per the title -- a post here showed some auctmarts fairings fitting quite well to an SP2, only the paint didn't line up on the tank -- its a risk, you can get good stuff or bad. Essentially I had over 500 bones sunk into these. They are not destroyed, by any means -- some epoxy or jb weld could fix the headlight mount, and the side panels are unmounted, like new. Just to get the f-ers out of the garage I'd let them go for.... $?? plus shipping.
A braided rear brake line for the rc51 plus shipping.
A spare magura brake master cylinder lever (radial) plus shipping.
A set of 250 cc slicks (take offs, even) plus shipping.
A spare 320mm ducati front rotor (just 1, floating) plus shipping
A late-model RS125 race tail plus shipping...
