Chinese fairings ?
Anyone have knowledge of these 'made in China' quarter fairings that are on E-bay ? They are priced at around $130 and look the same as Memphis Shades ones. I know that usually 'knock-offs' from this part of the world are pretty poor , just wondered if at half Memphis price they are worth a gamble...b.

I would not take one for free....
My ordered guidelines for buying anything:
1) Buy USA
2) Avoid China made
3) Buy from trusted countries
4) Buy from the rest
Just my personal way of doing buisness.

A lot of stuff is made in China, to include HD OEM parts. Difference is things branded with the HD name have much better QC.
Chinese knock off parts will be extremely hit or miss. You may buy a part that is equivalent or even better than the original part one day, then someone else will buy the exact same part from the exact same seller and it will be ****.
