Could of sworn there was a post of my bike up on this section??? cmmmmmmm. well here are some if you haven't seen it. Both me and the bike have been in hibernation for the past 6 months as a house purchase, wedding proposal and new business venture have dictated my time otherwise.
So here is my little baby. Absolutely love this bike.

I believe so mate. And it does go and handle as well as it looks.

For me I found it fairly easy. certainly with a few helpful pointers off other people. Instead of me making a fresh fairing frame I got the frame off the ES and just heavily modified it. was a bit of planning with regards to mounting brackets and that. the ones that hold the screen brackets on actually go through the headlight surround. then I had to put a couple further back to hold the fairing off the tank. I fibreglassed the bottom piece to both side and that is all that holds them on. And after 3000 miles they are still there.
It all sits surprisingly well, so much so that when at eurokat a lot of people only thought there was only 4 pop ups as they didn't look twice at mine. That to me is a good thing if it can fool people who know the bikes well.
