well crazy russian first all i love your handle> second that fairing kind looks bad ass. how was the mounting? seems cheap enough did they ship well? from the ebay pic it looks boxy but on your bike it looks awesome.

i got my from a friend, but its the same unit as on ebay. mounting is easy, between the headlight and the headlight mount, just pinch the brackets for the fairing. i did have to trim the inside to fit it around the cluster a bit batter, but nothing that's too complicated
here is another shot from up front

it reduces the wind up to your lower chest (my seat is also lower then a stock GS seat) and thank you :-) i load everything on my bike and travel that way, my Red is not a trailer queen by any means
But the bike dose feel different with the faring on it, if you don't like it, im shore you'll be able to sell it fairly easy, give it a shot and post what you think

cid, I've been looking at this fairing and other similar also, here's the thread. Some interesting perspectives on it: http://www.thegsresources.com/_forum...d.php?t=191693
Crazy Russian, glad to hear yours is working well for you. There are two bike shops locally to me that have this fairing in stock, so Cid, you might be able to locally source yours also, maybe.
