Steven:

I just mounted my Hoppe fairing ten days ago.

I've only been out on the road with it once. A 120 mile trip right after I put it on. Plus, I've been commuting with it last week and this week.

So far, no complaints. I think it does noticeably change the handling characteristics of the bike, though. That's a lot more weight out there on those handlebars than before. Mostly, is more noticeable at low speeds when making tight turns in a parking lot or such. This is the first fairing I've ever owned, though, so I wasn't accustomed to that. It's nothing that can't be gotten used to though. I've put a trunk and hard bags on, too. So that also makes a difference.

I have a longer trip planned this weekend to go up north and see the fall colors. So I'll have a better feel for things next week.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask.
