I can get both pearl white and white. Here is a sample of a pearl white tail next to a white helmet. Not the best lighting I know, but for reference...

EsrTek · March 2nd, 2012, 05:45 AM

That's really the one piece I want, the Pearl White Tail (to replace my black one and match rest of bike)
Any info possibly on getting these???

samw · March 2nd, 2012, 06:35 AM

I can match any of the Kawi colors - my painter uses the same computer system that the OEM painter in Europe uses

Check out the GP Style Seat Cowl on my web site - it is a slightly different shape than the one in the pic above.

The GP cowl looked good, but not what I wanted...
If you look at my avatar pic, you can see the plastics behind seat are black, It's those I want in white (w/ normal passenger seat on it). Yeah, I could probably get it painted, but I rather just buy another set and keep the OEMs as spares or to put it back to stock if sold in future.
I was planning on buying a new set of those plastics from bikebandit and then have those painted to match.. just figured I'd ask if you could get it already done and save me some steps/trouble.

Sam, can you source a pic of a white ninja with the cover? I'm this close to pulling the trigger. Also, hope the Euope white matches the US white, since it'll be very noticeable on the front of the bike. Thanks!

I can try, but I'm telling ya, I believe my painter can match any OEM Kawasaki color. He assures me he uses the same computer paint system the OEM painter uses in Europe. Or, I can sell an unpainted one and you can use your own painter.

USMCEvan · March 12th, 2012, 11:51 PM

I'll take one in black!!!

Shall I PM you shipping, or would you like to PM me PayPal addy to send money to?

ator · March 13th, 2012, 07:13 AM

I want one in Candy Lime Green!! PM sent

samw · March 13th, 2012, 06:07 PM

Please order on the web site @ sportisimotorsport.us. All of these have been manufactured and are ready to ship, but a few other items in the order are delaying it. My estimate is still 4 weeks. I am also painting these to order here in Ohio to eliminate the possibility of damage to the finish during overseas shipping. I'll keep everyone updated on ETA

Looks good. I wonder how the white one will look against blue bike.

Was wondering the same thing but black on green, 2011's already have alot of black on them, I just wonder if it would flow with the rest of the bikes black.

NinjaBoyEddy · March 14th, 2012, 03:27 PM

Nice how much. What's the link

EthioKnight · March 14th, 2012, 09:27 PM

Wow...those look awesome, especially if you have some sort of an HID mod done to the headlights, like in the first posted picture. I'm definitely interested, but would like to see more pics and read more reviews/info.

zCasanova · March 14th, 2012, 11:07 PM

So, if we order them today, it'll take 4 weeks for them to arrive in the US?

How long for them to be painted?

samw · March 15th, 2012, 03:18 PM

Current estimated ship date from Indonesia is March 25. Give it until March 30 to arrive at my door. I have one of each color (except candy lime green) already painted - the rest are primer only. I can deliver to my painter on March 31. Give him 10 days to paint (probably less). Then ship to you

edxmon · March 23rd, 2012, 11:43 PM

These are nice, highly interested. If I order from your site am I all set to receive by the end of the month? I'm looking for one in black.

Also, how can I get my hands on a seat cowl like the one one next to your helmet?

samw · March 24th, 2012, 06:30 AM

all of the headlamp covers are made and will ship from indonesia on monday or tuesday. they should arrive at my door by the end of the week. candy lime green and a few other colors will be painted in ohio, which may require up to 10 days but probably less. Preorders will be fulfilled first.

the pearl white seat cowl in the photo above is not available, sorry. the current style is on the web site. the fastest way to get a headlamp cover would be to pre order one. however, all the black have been reserved so I'll have to paint to order. you should have it by the second week of april.

zCasanova · April 9th, 2012, 11:01 AM

Are these still going to be arriving this week?

samw · April 9th, 2012, 04:42 PM

Yes they arrived last week and some folks received theirs already. The candy lime green and more popular colors are being painted as I type. My painter is a day or two behind due to the Easter holiday.

My painter in Ohio can match all OEM paint colors, but let me ask him about this color.

If I wanted to get a few small bits done, could he do them for a fee? I imagine that they could be done at the same time as something else.

For example, I want to make a little wedge over my tail light to make my Sportisi undertail look more like the Hotbodies one. I also want to cover the two top corners of my headlight to round them off instead of splitting them. If I make some pieces that fit right, could I send them off to you to get painted by him? I also have a vented lower cowling insert that covers the exhaust headers which is the wrong color. I'm considering some replacement front turn signals which I would like to have the housings painted to match. A few small bits probably isn't worth his trouble, so I'm trying to think of something else to paint. I already have a hugger, solo seat cowl, undertail, etc.

ator · April 16th, 2012, 06:50 PM

I'm getting mine tomorrow. I'll post up some pics

ator · April 18th, 2012, 11:19 AM

some pics

zCasanova · April 18th, 2012, 11:20 AM

Completely changes the entire look of the bike, can't wait for mine to arrive.

Did you use double-sided tape near the bottom?

Here's a red one.

justinswidebody · April 18th, 2012, 01:49 PM

Can't wait for mine to come in, I also have a candy lime green one coming. I have projectors and hids. So when I get mine I will post pics.

Squalo · April 19th, 2012, 09:42 AM

Either of you go for a night ride yet? How are the lights afterwards?

justinswidebody · April 19th, 2012, 05:27 PM

justinswidebody · April 19th, 2012, 05:42 PM

I must say this headlamp cover is the best 52 dollars I've spent on my bike. Thanks Sam for bringing them to the u.s.
