You can paint them, but they won't look decent.

yea, like Okie said, do a search. You'll find plenty on it. I know because I just recently looked into painting my gas tank. Basically the general consensus is that painting plastics is never a good idea. I believe one guy was able to do it, but the process was a real time-suck and super expensive if I remember correctly. You're gonna be better off buying new plastics or putting some new graphics on it. What year is the bike?
