Anything that is made in hong kong should be avoided like the plague. Cheap and really nasty.
Sorry cant agree bud. Do some homework and you can find some top stuff.
Remember when ppl used to say the same about jap stuff? Look where we are now.


There's not much made in the UK anymore and most things are imported with a huge amount of stuff from China.
I take it EXJ10R doesn't own anything electrical that hadn't been made out here????

Hugo Boss clothing is made in Cambodia & Vietnam, i still buy it 'cause it good quality clothing

Taiwan is a huge major exporter of PC components and DELL has one of its manufacturing bases in Penang, Malaysia as do Blaupunkt amongst many other numerous companies. Why? because labours cheap, overheads are low.

China do make some good stuff but they also make some poor quality stuff too,

Like Horse said, you pay your money and you get what you pay for.

 

Sorry for ruffling your feathers  :roll: but I was refering to bike stuff only, maybe should of put that first.  But thought it was a post about after-market faring kits  :icon_scratch:

Bottom line is you pay your money and you take your chances.............................

 :iamwithstupid:   there was someone on here who bought some and from what i saw they were ok but not perfect, i assume that there are many companies doing similar withsome good and some bad,it seems that no one is shouting about a specific seller being good in which case it verymuch as horse says  :icon_thumright:

if you are after a simple colour change perhaps offer a swap ofpanels and tank  :dontknow:

There IS good stuff out there.
The problem is knowing which is the good and the bad stuff in the first place.
Can be a real minefield!

Not rustling my feathers at all matey  [rofl]

Juts think there is crap to be bought but you can get a good quality bargain too.

I am in a unique position to go and have a look at the stuff over here, but as to how it fits, you can be guided by those who have fitted it and posted  :headbang:
