I don't think they have... is this a new development for this years bike?
Pretty trick, GP style!
Makes you wonder how much lighter their bike is compared to the JSE/L&M bike from last year...that is, if it is any lighter.

The Shop
It does look to be part of the graphics.
Someone get to the bottom of this. Weege...to the shop, pronto!
i believe that's illegal in most states
I would hate to crash with that on the bike. It looks cool, but the risk/reward doesn't seem to be that much better.
"We are testing carbon fiber shrouds, in fact we are testing quite a few innovative concepts"
That is what i love about JGR, they have all the resources and not afraid to experiment and try new trick stuff.
Pit Row
Like everyone already stated, I wouldn't want to be on the same track with those shrouds if not.
And I agree, I see them bringing some pretty cool stuff to the table over the next couple of years.
The only good side to this is weight savings and the higher average of not having to replace your shrouds due to wear and tear. Plus you shouldn't get those ugly light marks like the yamaha and kawasaki plastics get when they bend.
But hey, they look super cool!
I just couldn't imagine the weight savings being the reason to develop such a part. The plastic versions couldn't be that much different in total weight. Just seems the strength of the CF parts would be the reason to develop such.
nice.
what sick new doo will we see for A1?
