What! All this chit-chat and no pics of these beautiful dual-colored scoots?! Unacceptable scoot forum behavior. Bring it on already! "Proof is in the viewing" (someone said pudding?) that makes no cents! :lol:

I don't feel that is fair. If GN2 believes 3rd party parts are generally poor compared to OEM in general, that does not preclude him believing the quality of other parts goes the other way.

Looks to me that you just can't resist trying to stir up a barney.
It isn't working.

Not at all, I'm just trying to siff thru your conflicting statements at times..
You waiver slightly from time to time, loosing your consistency or just softening up.. :)

There are no conflicting statements.
In the past I have said that aftermarket performance parts are all junk, that does not mean that everything which comes in Honda branded packaging is top quality.
You have put two and two together and come up with five.

To be fair on this - GN2 has said on more than one occasion (if I remember correctly) that Honda heated grips are crap compared to good aftermarket ones - right or wrong that's his opinion (I also believe he advised someone to ask for their money back from a dealer having stated they just ordered them).
