Re: RE: Lower Fairing Removal

["Jonathan Schulster" <Schulster@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Sorry, dont have a digi camera yet, and haven't taken any photos that I could scan yet.

You can see the pipes and lower part of the engine block - the only detracting points are
a) the brackets for mounting the lower fairing (small and black so I left them)
b) the holes in the upper fairing where the connecting bolts go - will try and find some blanking plugs.

Only other problem is that removing the lowers/bellypan seems to put some stress on the front bolt which joins the upper fairing halves - no solution for that yet.

Otherwise I think it looks pretty good, and it is taken most observers some miinutes to work out what is 'wrong' with my ST :)  Whether it looks 'cool' or not is a matter of debate, but it is certainly cooler :)

Hey Jonathan,

Do you perhaps have photo of your bike without the lowers you could
share with us?

I've done this on mine, and its been fine so far, including speeds upto
160kph on the autobahn.  I went round tightening all the fairing allen
key bolts as most had worked loose :(
It definitely makes a difference with the amount of heat coming up off
the fairing.
cheers
Jon.

I'm thinking about removing the lower fairing...
