I saw these on ebay.
I know there was a lot of talk on here about extra cooling / ventilation for tuned scoots and these look pretty well made

yeah i saw these, i dont think the finish is meant to great on them? . They arent vented at the rear though which is a potential issue...
Anyways i quite like them although i think the boxy shape lends themselves more to a GP than an Li... You could always get them done yourself thats presuming you have a pair. Will prob work out about the same maybe less and then at least they will be individual to your scoot...

No, but there is a bloody great hole underneath. In fact, it is such a huge hole, you probably don't need the vent at all.
Having said that, I've a vent in my front mudgaurd that does nothing at all, a bit like the louvres in the panel of a GP.

Obviously the engine bay is very far from airtight but it all gets very warm in there. A bit more fresh air wouldn't hurt. It might improve cool air flow to the carb too.
