Great thread! I'm planning on ordering the Mach 1 skins as soon as I get an update from my dealer about the 696 they're working pricing out on for me (it's a looong story). I'll post pics whenever I get the bike and skins.

that OEM coat is not strong....it's aready got some light scratches from normal use.  You are correct. The OEM clear coat is weak. Is it better to get "skins" or a replacement cowl from DP vs. dealer? Other sources? Thanks |

that clear coat on the black and gold really does make it pop so much more than just the flat look it had in the pics.
good job and enjoy the "new" bike you now have.

My Mach 1 skins finally arrived  These photos aren't the greatest (I'm hoping to get some better photos soonish, when we get some more sun and the light is better), but I love them! The whole bike...  Close up of the sidepanel...  Extreme closeup of the logo...  |

I'm rocking the bright blue skins on my black framed 696. It took a minute to grow on me, but I really dig it. I'll try to get some pickup later today.

looks slick! (also, glad you guys got it in the right order, nothing bothers me more than seeing the "red-white-green")

Thanks M1100  It is a GTI in the background. I guess the wheel gave it away? Since I need a car half the year up here, I figured I might as well get one that the Top Gear guys liked a lot  |
