Default New fairing...What do you think?
Just added this. What do ya'll think? Does it stay or go? Not quite sure about it yet. I bought it in the classifieds here at a decent price. It has a few small issues that should have probably been put in the sale add but all and all, it's not bad...

I think the fairing cleans up the front end nicely and also serves to take some wind pressure off your chest while riding. Style and function:-)

I think it would look better if the headlight was flush with the fairing.
