It does sound like a project but what the heck, go ahead and send me the
pictures. We've got a broadband connection, so don't worry about file
sizes. Belly pan removal is on my project list anyway so I may as well =
take
the extra step. Have you done anything to improve wind protection?
Thanks,

Rick, I forgot to mention that I had to re-position my fairing forward =
and
upward to allow clearance for the bars. It also required removing the =

part of the fairing since it would now be in contact with the exhaust. I =
had
the exhaust system ceramic coated so it looks great. It was a bit of =
work,
making adapters for the fairing mounting brackets to facilitate
re-positioning the fairing but I'm very satisfied with the results. If =
you
want I will e-mail you pictures.
