    Well spotted, and very well timed!

    These are discontinued by Honda, so what's out there in the "new old stock" or "used secondhand" market is all that's available... well, up until about a week ago that is!!!!

    I've just started producing replicas of these in OE style black, as well as a white version (which looks really good) and will be making a post soon as I intend to sell them.

    I'll probably make them to order, as production will only last as long as the mould does.

    Pictures and prices soon!!

    You'll just have to make more moulds then Bob

    I think you will sell as many as you make especially into Europe.

    Can't wait for a pic or two....

    White? As far as I know, the white ones were only shown in some pre-production pictures and never actually sold to customers.

    The OEM screws can still be bought from Honda though, at least they could last year when I bought new ones for my RD03 before I sold it.

    Just as Kitped writes, you will probably sell a bunch here in Europe.

    You'll have another customer here as my new (to me) RD03 is missing a headlight cover and would look much better with one. I await afore mentioned post with anticipation.

    OK chaps, a brief update and some pictures.

    These headlamp guards will ONLY FIT THE RD03.

    I will work out the price and hope to have some for sale by the middle of next week. I'll update here, and will actively sell them in the FOR SALE area of the forum.
