1. Hotbodies R1
These are price about right at $379 now. I bought these in 2016 when building my R1 racebike. At the time Armorbodies (used on my 11 S1000RR) were on a 3+ week backorder, sharskinz were similar wait time so reluctantly I bought these. Having owned hotbodies products before I wasn't expecting a high quality product but these are s#&t. Brian explains in the video as politely as possible that there is some finishing to be desired. I spent less time re glassing, priming and painting fairings after a high side than prepping these new fairings for paint. If using a quality urethane base coat/ clear coat system go ahead and add the primer for your paint system of choice, I wish I had. The Armorbodies primer is a quality urethane that accepts most any paint well with a little scuffing and solvent wash. Dimensionally, no panel was symmetric with the opposite side, the tail cracked after 2 days on track. I replaced it with another brand not sold here becasue the Armorbodies tail was not available so I wont mention name but it is still on there 4 years later in great condition with perfect paint adhesion despite being hit with boots, used as a paddock leaning post & pushed on while loading. That was my experience with this bodywork
