One of the cool things is that the whole thing hides under stock fairings. They need a little modding/spacing out but it's virtually unnoticeable even to other riders until you see the belt drive peeking out.
First, the inner panels alongside the front wheel that carry the turnsignals need some trimming to clear the spaced forward rad., the template is supplied. I used a dremel tool with a spiral bit designed for wallboard. At med high speed you can draw fine shapes with it. Leaves a nice edge too.
The bellypan needs the rounded triangle hole enlarged to clear the crank pulley. This is my freehand result...
The right mid fairing needs some contouring done to allow the modified rad hose to run alongside it, mostly slicing off lips. In this pic, the piece closest to the camera folded 90 degrees to the main panel needs to go away.
The kit comes with a small assortment of spacers that push the right fairing out 1-2 inches, yet keep it tucked in at the bottom to maintain ground clearance. I did have to trim around my frame sliders, but it too was minimal...
OK, stay tuned for the ride, videos, reports, etc. It begins.
