    Doesn't look right at all, not just because its different, It just doesn't suit the shape

    Nah...doesn't look good at all. Looks like the lower half of the fairing has been gashed up as well, some strange looking bolts holding it together on a joint that a standard fairing hasn't got, could be the fairings are cheap aftermarket tat i suppose

    Looks like something from IRobot.
    What a waste of a lovely looking bike.
