Is this fairing right?
« on: 03 August 2018, 09:47:07 am »
Please see the attached photo, I’ve just bought this bike but as it’s been a while since I’ve owned one of these I’m not sure if this fairing seems lower, there seems to be a lot of fork above the fairing, maybe it’s just my imagination, I’m not even sure if it would be adjustable which would mean I’m definitely imagining it...... senility kicking in?

Looking at it in relation to the tank, frame etc, I'd say that's right. The bike has been dropped on the forks a few mm judging by what's protruding above the top yoke, but nothing wrong with doing that - quickens the steering a little and is quite a common thing to do.


Btw, congratulations on choosing the best colour  :D
Seems a very clean example from that shot too.
