Re:New Fairing 4 Years, 5 Months ago  
Hey Guys, it's here!!
Can you beleive it?
I ordered Monday, it shipped Tuesday evening, and arrived Thursday morning, in the busiest time of year. That's not normal! I've had to wait weeks, and even months for some of the items on my wish list.

I've never had a fairing, so really don't know what to compare it to.
Hey, even my windshield is a first!
All in all, I'm impressed with the quality so far.
It comes as white plastic, and is incredibly light.
Even when I get the stereo in, it will still be very light. I like that fact.
I have to paint it before I can install the stereo.
Looks like it will be an easy paint prep. First looks, it seems the plastic is pretty smooth out of the box.
It will probably be next week before I can get time to prep & paint.
It came in so fast, I'm still not totally sure what color to paint it!
Maybe I'll know by then.
I have to leave after work tommorrow for a competition this weekend.
Will be in Tunica, MS all weekend. Rough job, huh (casino town)?

I'll post photos when I'm finished.-

You could leave the fairing the color it is and paint the rest of your bike to match

I think we need to make a new rule. No teasing with stories. Ya can't post about new toys until you have pics to go with it.

Re:New Fairing 4 Years, 4 Months ago  
OK Guys
I finally finished the fairing.
My shop conditions aren't the greatest.
More of a shed than a shop.
Hard to keep the temp up enough this time of year.
I hope to paint the tour trunk silver this week.
I'll paint the bags blue later.

You can check it out here.
