Yeah thanks for the thumbs up east bay. I would like the inside to have spme attention. I think I will most likley sand it some and hit it with the trusty plastidip.

I do want it to sit higher once the new brackets are in. but the more I look at it, it looks good at thos height.

Yeah I dont know if its improved. Yours bolts in the center, mine doesnt, but mine could have a tighter fit on the windscreen in my opinion. Mine sort of has a buldge in the center where your screw is

Looks good, but I have to agree that for the price they charge they should finish out the inside.

looks killer man. i am guessing that you will like the wind reduction with the bigger fairing also.
i like your bike. a nice example of a versatile commuter/ touring/ sport rig. i love my set up also, windshield and bags. hardly ever take em off but am upgrading to a rifle fairing. hope it looks as good as yours!

thanks lefty.. Appreciate it. i like the bags option too. they never come off. I use them every ride for stuff. hope to get out soon when it stops raining in Diego. give a ride report on this fairing.

I uploaded another pic this time of the headlight relocation issue. maybe can get some ideas from anyone

I was going to say, the only thing I didn't like about it was the headlight position. Glad you are trying to get it out and up.

How about something unconventional like this?

The fairing looks really good. The headlight definitely needs to come out more or push the fairing in.
