It's a dirty job but someone's got to do it.

No its not...put it on after I took the photos...Cheers Lads I'm thinking of keeping it the original white and spraying the red panels to match...

...and the fairing attached to the above bike is what I've decided on which means I can run the original dash :D

It's good keeping the original clocks, you can make sure evertthing works properly then. :nod:

A word of advice, make sure your bar clamps are really tight, especially if your a "full throttle" rider (very hard to do on an R1 fighter) iv'e just stripped all the knurling off my renthals around the clamp area!!!! must be something to do with the dry weather. :unibrow:
