Is anybody else disappointed with the colour of yellow used on the optional extra fairing? it looks nothing like my new yellow icon!!
At £105 i would have thought they could get the colour to match!

I think it's a half way house between the icon yellow and the classic burnt orange. But I agree you'd think they'd get small details like that right. Or just have it like a smoked/clear type.

I'm thinking something like this that can be easily taken off or put on for my Full Throttle, when it arrives:

Did I read somewhere that the color is just a sticker? If so, maybe you can fix up something you like better yourself.

Yeah, I read that too, I think it was Elvisto. Quite expensive for what you get because the brackets can't be all that......

Its the same as the Full Throttle seat panels. Slightly off the 62 yellow , looks like they added a tiny amount of orange tint

When I ordered my fairing through the dealer, the pic showed it as clear. Hasn't arrived yet though.

The bracket for the screen is very substantial, and very well thought out,

It thought it might be. I was looking at how it possibly mounted in the 3 points. Presuming of some fixed points.

 

[ELVISTO]

The mountings are four in total, a tube arrangement goes over the top of the headlamp, using the H/lamp fulcrum point and the flasher point fixings, then the small screen has three fixing points to the tube support,
It's an easy enough job to remove screen and paint it what colour you like, if needs be,

Mine ended up being the yellow sticker as well. I removed the yellow sticker and sanded the plastic to take away the gloss and give the fairing more of a rubber look. Pretty happy with how it turned out.

That looks ok Drhurt67, really suits the red bike, Did it peel off in one piece, ?

Welcome to the forum , it's good to have you along

Looks good! Does it help with wind at all, or do you feel it's mostly cosmetic?

Does look good, and looks like it would be easy to add just a little extra fabbed up lip, if needed.

The sticker peeled off easily but left a lot of residual glue. I used acetone on the glue and it came off pretty quickly.

I haven't noticed a big difference really with wind. I think it is mainly cosmetic, I like how it hides the key from view. I wouldn't buy it expecting to block wind like a windscreen would.

does the screen give some wind protection or is it just a optical enhancement?
