Maier question?

[Str8Wicked]

How do they fit compared to stock... also how flimsey are they compared to stock... I usually pull my bike sideways on my open trailer and have seen 250R's with Maiers look like the fenders were going to pull off with the wind...... Also how long will black plastics hold up.....

[Sparky416ex]

well ive had mine for about a year and a half now...they are holdin up great...i was really afraid of sagging but they never have....they are a lol tougher than stock...and the opposite of flimsey

[Sparky416ex]

pic...this is recent...just before we took it to get rebuilt...about 2 weekes ago...its not very clean at all sorry

[Str8Wicked]

Cool, thats what I need to know...

[Extremeracer167]

i think its alot stronger then stock, but someitmes its a pian to get it bolted up for the first time. But after that, its GREAT plastic

If you are looking to save some money check out Lesteratv.com. He is a Maier dealer and he has quite a few sets of factory blems. the blemishes are minor. maybe a few light scratches or bubbles from the mold but that's about it.

[Chef]

My Black is holding up good...its not Maier, but its black!

[ChadEXer]

I have the white Maier and mine is holding up great. I think it fits just right and it looks good too.

[Pappy]

i just tried a set of the new maier....with the side panels....i sold them :p fullbore is ordered....

8 bolts:confused: maybe on the old style...mine came with enough nuts and bolts to build a bridge:(

Mine is holding up great. I have the shiney zest orange but whenever it gets a lil dull, i spray some WD-40 on it and the shine comes right back.

175.oo a set + 30.00 shipping at LesterATV.com for front & rear.... hummmmm

I can get a brand new set front & rear , not blems for 200 + 20.00 shipping... I figure + 50.00 for the tank cover & side fenders...

I've seen his blems on sale on E-bay and for the price I can't believe people even buy them from him... It's just a few more $$$ to get new ones.......

[BigThumper33]

I don't know where your getting your prices but I have a maier retail price list from my sponsorship package I got a few weeks ago.

Fronts- 170
Rear- 130
Side panels- 60
Tank cover- 30

I've got a pretty big discount from sponsorship and can barely get the numbers you think your going to be paying for new maier.....

[Str8Wicked]

You can get them right now on Rockymountainatv.com for 95 fronts, 74 rears, 24 sides, and 14 tank.....

I also have a few places here in Cali that Maiers suggested to get htem from locally which sell them for 200.oo for fronts and backs...... These aren't dulls or blems eithier.... Looks around for good prices and you shall find them....

[Str8Wicked]

my friend has got the silver meier on his with a nacs seat/graphics kit... I got the zest orange with nacs seat/graphics................they both look soooooooo sweet.

they were a pain in the arse to mount up though.

[heavy_d]

here's my maier plastic, its real firm, hard to crack, and shinier than stock

What do you guys think.. maier white shiny with a red fibe hood.. or white fullbore on red frame, red nacs racing backgrounds, red gas tank. I can get fullbore cheap only around 100 moire than maier and I get maier for 250.

If you buy the stock style you can still use your head lights.

It's good you got them for a huge discount through sponsorship but seems to me from what you said in your last sentance....that you didn't pay much less than I bought them for without sponsorship...

[BigThumper33]

Nope I won't be getting it much cheaper, but then I'm a first year sponsor and all I had to do was sign a piece of paper..... hopefully next year I can get some stuff for free... :scary:

I know its kinda amazing what people will pay. I sold my stock plastic for 180 and that was front, back, tanks cover, and also the black peices beside the lights. I bought a new set of stock plastic (front, back, tank cover, and also the black peices beside the lights) for 175. If you want side panels it was an extra 30 bucks a side. I got mine from service honda.

mine is holding up

Actually I got a lil sum sum lined up for the engine so i may be selling my slip on and a few other parts which I will be replacing...

Most likely going to go with a CT 440 kit since they are local... Sparks will take way to long and I really don't trust trinity after talking with a few people....

Got my +2 chrome lonestars coming in and than buying shocks... After the shocks I'm gonna rip the puppy apart and start on the engine and powdercoating........

Wish me luck....


We need to set something up this summer to go ride...

[Dune Surfer]

Anytime str8, Your quad's gonna be bad.:cool:

[Sick0]

Heres my front plastic. I bought this used.

[OCCRA288]

I mounted my Orange plastic Monday evening and it was some thick stuff. Good quality as well. I scuffed it a lil but nothing some wet dry sandpaper won't take out. Overall the mounting was very easy. I had to drill two holes in the rear plastic for the fender support brakets to bolt in to. The brakets are very simple but you may have to bend them or your support wire to make it work. I'll get pics up this weekend.

[Str8Wicked]

I wanted to but I doubt it since the wife wants to sell our house and get a larger house. I may not be able to afford a trip until after we get the house....

She doesn't ride but I've been trying to get her involved. SHe doesn't seem to be into it much.. Mostly she just likes kickin back and watching me & my son have a blast....

Look at page 2 of this post or this image and you will see how cheap they are.


I paid this + I added a K&N filter cleaning kit for 9.99 and three K&N oil filters which I forgot how much they were. Shipping was 30 I believe....


Dune Surfer, I already sold the plastics..... sorry man....

[steve]

i have yellow maier racing plastic on my 92 250x and it hold up real good i also flip my quads side ways and don't relly flap and also we ride in some thick mud and you know how stock plastic sags, well mine never has.

[YLW400]

Could someone show a detailed pic of the front mounting on the new Maier?? With the seperate side panels and stuff. How does it fasten to the four wheeler? The "support wires", is that all that holds it on????????? Thanks guys@!!

I just have a few more days until I order mine...:cool: I cant wait...:blah

[YLW400]

Yea. I am not digging the way that it mounts up...Now I know why Pappy wanted to sell it.....j/k

[Ty's400]

Does the white stain very easily or only if you don't wash your quad very much and do a lot of mud boggin? thanks

[YLW400]

I am not sure, I just put in on last night....lol

My white has held up great! I havent put it in any mud of course but it does look good!!

[YLW400]

Str8wicked, could you post a pic of your plastic installed? I dont understand how the front mounts up. Thanks dude.

[ECAthumperEX33]

Here's maier white front, white side panels, and white rear. Making a quadtech 250R hood fit was pretty hard since the 400 hood is pretty rounded compared to a stock 250r.

[ECAthumperEX33]

and another...
