Thanks...I actually got the idea from my brother's bike. He has an 09 CVO Ultra. Even though it's 3 colors, his fairing gave me the idea for the pattern that I came with. The first painter was actually shown my brother's bike for the "pattern", but chose to paint along the bend for some reason. Go figure!
I don't want to offend anyone, but I don't care for the way the fairing looks on the Ultra in my color bike. That is why I did not want the typical harley paint job. Just too much white IMO.
BTW...from what i can tell from your profile pic...you have a great looking scoot! I LOVE red and white bikes.

Thanks. I like yours too. I really like the classic two color look.
I plan to add a fairing after the first of the year. I'll post when I finish it. Where you thinking of adding lowers?

I want to do the same thing to my bike but I also want to add a tach mounted to the nacelle. I was wondering if that would work or would the fairing hit the tach and I would have to remove the tach. I really like the bag placed on the large space above the radio. Great idea to hide that big space and make it useful.

I have a tach, but it's built into the speedo. I look at that more than the speed, can't imagine not having one.

, I don't want the extra weight on my bike...plus, living in Texas, I want all the airflow that I can get. If it's cold, I wear heated gear. BUT, I am considering the leather rainguards (Desert Dawgs). They appear to be easy to install/uninstall and would be easy to pack on trips for the times I might want the protection from rain/cold.
