I will take a relevant photo of the bike with the panniers on - wish I'd seen this earlier as I was out on the bike for a few hours today.
I don't know if it's Ivanised - I was told it "probably" is, but I haven't actually checked.
The shorter dog bones sharpen up the otherwise lazy steering (along with dropping the forks 10mm through the yoke). Many owners fit them. As I said, I also have the originals and can refit those, if desired. The only downside to having them is that it is harder to put the bike on the mainstand (takes more effort) as the bike is slightly lower.
Not wanting to p/x the bike - not part-exchanging it for a new bike. I'd rather sell it to a genuinely interested/keen rider than sell it for a much undervalue price to a dealer. I met one of the type I am referring to today when I test rode a Virago. You know, the type that instantly starts talking down your bike, just in case you want to p/x it. The state this Virago was in, I wouldn't trust the guy with a bicycle, let alone anything with an engine in it.
By the way - you could of course, easily just get smaller panniers to fit the mounting frame. I deliberately got the larger ones because we had the bike as our main transport for a year or so and had to fit the weekly shopping in it!
The touring kit refers to the screen. You can see it in the photos - it has a raised upper fairing and large screen. Does a really great job of keeping the wind, weather and truck blast away. With the luggage, hugger and extender fitted as well, it makes an excellent touring bike. You'll find this sentiment in many reviews on the internet. Though I must admit, some of the reviews of the Fazer thou gen 1 that I have read are not the most accurate. As far as I am aware, the screen and fittings were an offcial aftermarket extra and are no longer available new, and are not easy to find to fit to a bike (the people who own them tend to hang on to them). I got it from a friendly FOC-U member
