Matt.. if you order from that place I told you about there are heaps to choose from and all relatively priced. I have a complete set of 2011 cervantes plastics (inc headlight) that I'm going to install at some point. Probably be another 6 to 12 months yet though. I'll wait until the ones I have are proper trashed.

Here are some more pics of my bike from the front. This is the standard 2011 GG kit. The newer logo clutch cover was added since the last pics. I wish I had more time to ride my gong show.

Thanks Jim! The previous owner told me he bought the bike new from your dealership and had it shipped to Red Wing MN.

Here's mine, just about finished the 2005 > 2011 conversion:
Was a right pain to do but I think the end result was worth it.
Purchased the kit from Motocrosscenter.com which was slightly cheaper than greenlandmx and free shipping in Europe.
this looks like it is missing the airbox stickers, or is this how it comes?

The kits come with them. They're a super heavy duty decal in that location. I think he was waiting for replacements with the correct engine size printed on them.

thanks are the decals already fitted to the plastics in the kit or do you need to fit them yourself?
I like this kit too and am not to fussed if it says 250F on the side

The decals come installed on the fenders & shrouds but you have to install them on the headlight shroud, air box side panels and fork guards.

What fender would you use and why?

I am still in two minds about the 2011 fender and light setup. I sometimes think the 2010 is better looking.
Am also considering a kyb front end and then possibly go with yz fender (thought this was compulsory until seeing your bike) but these opinions change with the weather
Thats very sexy indeed. I was just looking at the 2011 upgrade packages last night and considering doing the same to my 2010 Race. Either a cerventez/nambotin model I think. I did prefer the headlight and shroud of the older models though. Also FYI. That is 2011 plastics on yours. Not 2012
Hi Jakobi, I'm about to pick up an 09 300 and update it. One of my options was the 10 race model which was black with some white/yellow on it (although I haven't seen this kit). Is that what you have? How does the black hold up over time? Does it age quickly?
A pic of what I think is a 2010 race model stolen off the interweb...

I have a 2010 EC and though the black looks really nice in pictures, up close you see every little scuff and scratch.

I know what you mean. I could see scuffs on my black side panels/air box covers just by handling them before the decals went on.

Previous to my bike being done, I preferred the 2010 in pictures. Now that it's together and can see it, I actually really like my cyborg 2011 headlight & fender. Go figure

I also have black plastics from 2010 and am still on the original set with original stickers. I agree they do not look brand new for very long, but i would say that while lighter plastics look better initially they tend to fade and get "bruises" from bends when they are old, the black does not change.
For this reason if i do not go with one of the kits shown here i was going to go with black plastics again and add colour with the stickers.
