Default painted inner fairing guys.

Hey all , I am re-assembling the bike and want to know what you think. I have the dual winshield bag/pounch and am thinking about not puttung it back on. I don't want to scratch that nice paint. Did those of you that have a painted inner fairing ditch your winshield bags?

I put my three pocket pouch back on after painted inner fairing install. I didn't discover it was scratching the top of the inner until I took it off to change shields. I was pizzed that the "Chrome Expert" didn't warn me of the problem. Some adhesive backed foam such as thin weather stripping would have prevented the scratching. Now I have to leave it on or it would make me want to do bad things to good people!!!
