Ok, maybe it's just me, but do you often notice that while out riding you get lots of people looking at your bike. Whenever I stop at traffic lights every other car seems to contain soemone who is eyeing the bike up. Having only had naked bikes it's amazing the difference some fairing ( I've got lowers on my pointy) makes to the general publics opinion of a bike - I bet if I pulled up on an SV650 then they wouldn't bat an eyelid.

Also I notice how people move out of your way on the road when you've got a fairing - or maybe they just hear the Remus can with no baffle a long way away!

Chuckle Ok, confession time. Back in the dim and distant past (when it were all fields round 'ere) I'll admit that one of the reasons I got into bikes was to pull girls (only moderately succesfully as it turns out!). Now the only attention I seem to attract on the bike are schoolboys
