I put it on after a 200 mile ride on Saturday. I can assure you my bike doesn't sit long unless its very cold or raining. or both. I know it rreally wont be seen much but I think it looks better.
It does look nice. I bought mine strictly for show as the OE one looks like crap. I guess some of us like to dress up are rides no matter who can see it. Great job and my wife doesn't notice either which is fine, I bought that stuff for me!
My wife wouldn't notice if I painted the bike green.
Looks great man.
I use to get the wife to look at every minor part I put on. She would say I don't see the difference.

I think I may have to change the complete color just for her to notice.
