I had heard about people selling the kits on eBay, but I tried to look for them but I couldn't find any! Has anyone else done this?

BTW: I am talking about the Plastic Conversion, not shocks/carb/ect

Thank You

Yamaha of Troy is the one with the kits. I have looked at them a few times and the looks really nice, just a little pricey for me

Here is a link, it is not quite what you were looking for but really close. I was thinking that it was the 450R conversion but it is actually just a new model 400 conversion. Really close in my opinion.

dont do it man the convertion kits are to expensive if you want the new plastics just buy everything you need sepreatly those kits are about 500 and thats states price (im in canada). so my prices will be way more then what you will pay. all around plastic cost me 360. and the headlight i baught off ebay for 100. so all together 460 AND THATS IN CANADA if you buy it on your own you will for sure save 100-150 buy some tires with that or some 450r shocks

its not a "conversion"
just buy the 05-07 plastic at your honda dealer and bolt it on. The people on e-bay selling it are ripping you off.

I though there was a kit for the 450? The reason I love the 450 plastic is I like how the gas tank and fenders look. So.. there isn't a 450R conversion kit?
