I would love to see more views of that fairing.

My opinion is that I wish the bike was still that way, but it is your bike. Don't take all the negative opinion to heart. Opinions are like azzholes, we all have them. I do agree that I wish is was a different model like an L that you were making look like and L. At least you have a fender to stop the rubbibg of the nads in case of slippage.

As mentioned already that will be a problem getting to run if you don't rejet the carbs and you may try a tip I got from an instructor at MMI to make some back pressure in open pipes, though that is a lot more open than what we were discussing. Take a big washer about half the diameter of the pipe and weld some all thread rod to it and a nut. Drill a hole inward of the end of the pipe and fit the piece through it and ad another nut to hold it into place, If you cut a slot in the end of the rod you can use a flat head screwdriver to turn the rod to change how much back pressure is created, then lock down the nut.
