Awesome !
That looks really really nice and the baglux cover is great, what a match and fit ! That colour isa gorgeous as well. Is the screen and old visor ?
I could be tempted to chop the S against one of them, what's the wind blast like ?
Cheers

hehe - good eye - yeah the screen is an old Vemar Visor. Something my dad started with on his R650LS (the one that looks like a Katana) - since then he's made one or two other bikes with visors as fly screens - they're ideal.
The Wind-blast is akin to what you get with most "bikini" faired bikes - ie there is a fair bit - but it's around your head rather than on your chest. Certainly ok at 80 - gets a bit tiring at 100+

If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence that you tried.

Dare I put in a quiet word for the ZXR (me being a little biased maybe!!
) - Nice one - but green is best of course!
Seriously, it's an interesting contrast riding the S and then the ZXR - incredibly different bikes but both great fun.

my one WAS green for a while (Kawasaki Endurance team colours - better than the older WSB colours..
), but was repainted after an accident and now wears L4 fairings
sans decals : the black/blue scheme (it's an L5)

Yep!
Picked you up in my mirrors on the old AA roundabout, then lost you at the Roehampton turn off at the top of the A3. Where do you commute in from then?
