Noted today that the gap between the RHS fairing and the frame (running about
a quarter-inch front to back) was gone, the fairing was in contact with the
frame for the last half or so.  Removed some of the mounting bolts to inspect
and the two top-side fairing brackets bent, absorbing some of the impact
of going over.  So if you drop the ST, have them order the brackets, too, as
they are strong enough to take the hit, but weak enough to absorb some of it
as well.
