Which Fairing for this 850

[rustybronco]

5000 Km's with the stock bars and sitting behind that fairing is not going to be a problem.

OK that's good enough for me I'll keep the stock bars for the ride home.

Easy enough to play with the angle as 850combat suggests. I'll have a better idea of how I like them by the time I get home.

My red 1000G has 57000 miles on the stock bars. My bikes, with me and with my brothers on board have done back to back 600 mile days, on back roads, with stock bars. They are fine. I've removed four Windjammers and ride fairing free. I'm 59 next month. It isn't a problem. Windjammers to work well though, but all things considered, my brothers and I prefer to tour without fairings.

If you are interested, I might be able to give you a good deal on some Krauser luggage. I'm switching all of my 1000Gs over to Samsonite. Not in time for your trip, of course. I wouldn't obsess too much about the bike. It still has a seat that few if any have ever surpassed in comfort. How many days do you have to make the 2400 miles?

[RobertGS]

I'm giving myself 6 full days... That's what I took on the same route in the opposite direction years ago. Longer might be nice but that's what I've got. So they'll be solid days of riding.

The PO's throwing in a couple of side bags. I don't think they're very high quality so I may contact you after I get back about that.
