Check these out boys. Our prayers may have finally be answered
http://vmxracing.com/vmx-main.htm
Stumbled across them on ebay - anyone any the wiser ??
Edit : They have 125G/H side covers too - woo hoo
-
I have seen these guys before. I had the impression they were supplying Maier plastics? They do *look* good, anyway.
-
Do you think they are Maiers Graham. Talk about bursting a blokes bubble :'( :'( ;D ;D
I had Maiers on the 465 and they are rubbish. $185 for the set seems cheap, but I would not pay that for Maiers.
Wonder what the go is ?? Come on all you experts what do you say ??
-
I'm sure young Woody told me the other day that they are Maier. But I may be mistaken. Anyone know for sure? I've decided to go with the DC stuff for my 250G - they have a new mould that seems to be turning out a good looking set of plastics for this model and I actually don't mind the matte finish on a race bike.
-
The look like maiers to me or at least not much better.
No air intake/vents on the airfilter sidecover.
-
i would say they are getting Maier to specially make them stuff

Bugger, I thought I had something there ::). Never mind back to XYZ we go.
Thanks for saving me some money lads - much appreciated
-
what are you getting from xyz? their plastics look like the shiny maier stuff as well. the front guard pics look a different shape to the G/H.
-
hey boys i dont think they are maier as the maier sets did not come with the holes cut for the seat bolt access , the moulding looks different to as maier had real shallow mounting points, for 185 bucks these look the goods for a racer and i am looking at possibly purchasing these as im not happy with the new dc stuff ive fitted, but then again its a racer. ;D good find 250 H
-
I am 99.9% sure that XYZ are not selling Maiers. I have a set on the way, so I should be able to confirm soon. I have Maiers on the 465 and DC in the cupboard, so should be an easy comparison.
Stay tuned.

Is there anything else in that cupboard Tony ?? ;D
-
Quite a few skeletons ::) and a front mudguard that I didn't realise was DC until I got it in the mail :o
-
So... has anyone got any plastics from XYZ or VMX Racing as yet? Anything to report on quality and fit?
-

Still waiting on a PayPal invoice from XYZ so he can send them.
Darren,
You don't have another set of those in white do you ?? IF so they would be sold ;). Unfortunately all my other YZ's are white, so yellow would look out of place :(

What are this XYZ mob like to deal with? I've sent them e-mails and haven't heard anything back (maybe they know about me). They seem to have some nice bits.

Tell me about it! I refurbished the entire plastics on my IT175G project (which incidentally is almost done, only taken 18 months). What a job. Sure they look pretty good now, but that is a painful, slow, frustrating, painful, boring, arduous and did I mention, painful, job...
In the absence of first hand evidence, I am thinking to try the 250G sidecovers from VMX Racing. Soon too, given our exchange rate. I'll report back if I do.
