Hi all. I just picked up this 2012 GTS 300. She's a little beat up, I'd like to change a few things. Do they sell painted rear lower trim without the reflectors?
How hard can the 9000 mile maintenance be? Anyone tackle it?

IDK if it's still the same, but those reflectors were only for the U.S. market. Perhaps they do sell those body panels without reflectors for Europe and elsewhere.

You can snip the reflectors off on the inside, and you will be left with two small holes. Easy to fill them with a short piece of plastic tube, and then paint the end.

My scooter came with reflectors on the front mudguard, and that is the very first mod I did to the scooter. Found a knitting needle the right diameter. I hate those reflectors.

Looks pretty good for a "beat-up" scooter. Unless all the beat is on the other side.

Congrats on your new toy!
