Ok, while I have additional plastics (also faded), that I was going to use to practice painting, etc... I recently picked up some UFO plastics as well (they were a steal) so I figured I would mount em
before
after
Looks better, right....
However, I started trying to mount up the rear racks - fortunately from the LHS... However, I couldn't get everything to fit - grrrrr..
I figured out the issue... check this out
If you check closely - you can see the lhs curves outward more than the OEM
So while everything mounts up, perfectly - it looks like the side covers aren't an exact match.. I dont know if these are more universal with room to hide a battery (similiar to my xr650l) or a tool case....
Either way, it looks like I am now going to have to paint it, if I want to use my rear racks
I was unable get the old avatars reimported. Regretfully, you will have to upload your avatar again. Please report any issues here,.

Use Mothers Back to Black http://www.mothers.com/02_products/06108.html. On your faded plastics to try to bring them back. Worked great on my KLR.
