    So I'm trying to finish up the fairing on this project. We've had some other electronics to install and have some more programing to due but I'm frustrated with trying to get this thing to look right. I'm struggling with the top part of the fairing trying to keep some angle to it to keep it contiguous. Also comments on the light...like the way it is now? or I was thinking of bringing up the ends higher to match the angle from above. Once I can get that figured out I can paint the thing. It will have a lower piece as well but pretty norm configuring. I know this is a bit out there but I always consider your observations and objective thoughts. I did do away with the pointy nose as one suggested. I like this better and the angles seem to work ok. It's a prototype and simply to show that the IP works. But since I have to drive it a bunch I wanted something half decent to drive. btw, the front forks are being replaced with Radian forks and brakes now. I didn't want to do much different with FZR wheels. Also the new motor has the intake cam on the exhaust side to provide more lift at .70mm. Haven't driven but once around the block. Sounded different and boost came up a tad faster, seat of the pants feel only, no dyno time yet.
    Here's a link to the other forum related you can see what my mock was like.
    Below should be recent pic's.

    Paint the faring radar reflective flat black so the cops can’t see you and call it the F-117 Stealth street fighter
