Track Plastics

So just wondering... what are the better brands to look at for track plastics?

I've heard Hotbodies don't fit well... I think I've heard Cheetah were good... same with Shark Skinz but i've also seen Rockwall and Air-Tech.

just wondering. figure'n I'll be doing at least a couple once I get to MS... and considering my fairings are 600 for JUST the two stock side fairings combined... I might as well just get full track skins for a couple hundred more

Attack, Cheetah, the Woodcraft brand (CEO has 'em) and a couple others I forget. I have Attack and they're tits. $800, but they're worth it, they don't brak down in a wreck and if it's just a lowside, chances are good you can use them again no problem.

cool... yeah I've heard the fitment of them is also quite a bit better.

I drilled through the center of their indents and I had no problems at all, didn't have to make any adjustments. Quality shit.

Seriously, I wouldn't buy expensive track glass. Find something under $500. They all hold up pretty well nowadays. Hell my e-racing china crap is one of the best rated for the 600rr. Several people including myself have had nasty wrecks and they hold up just find. Remember you are buying these for one purpose, to save you money. You aren't saving money if you go out and buy expensive glass and wreck the piss out of it.
