I'm shopping for some replacement green plastic for a 2002 KX250. I want standard Kawi green. I don't want it to fade to a different color like I've seen on some bikes.
Other than original Kaw, what brand is going to hold up?
the acerbis plastics that i´ve owned (not very much, but the friends say the same) allways get white with a little bend... so if i let the bike drop the front fender turns white... and the fit is not perfect... that´s just my experience...
next time try this brand and you will be very satisfied... good quality product :cool:
Sorry lucas I disagree with your comments. My black plastic has no white crease marks even though it has been tested several times, none to be found on any of the red Hondas either. I think KTM also chooses this brand as stock. BTW if you ever do happen to find a plastic part with white crease mark, using a heat gun can remove them. I've used this trick on stock blue Yamaha plastic.
most of the time was in blue yz80 or 125 plastics that was in dt´s 50 or 125 (very, very popular bikes here) some 5 or 6 years ago... maybe plastics are better now...
it was just my experience but either i have to put new plastics in the cr and will have to be acerbis... i have nothing against...
thank you very much for the tip but last time i put a heater in my cr80 front fender it retracts when colding... might work on others, or maybe i just heated too much...
Too much heat in a concentrated area will do that. Apply the heat to a larger area in a circular motion and gently twist the plastic piece in different directions.
