Pricey, but I'm very happy.
Decided to bite the bullet on a Trophy Fairing from Wunderlich. Did some research and although very expensive it is well built and looks great IMHO.

That looks really sweet! Especially with the white stripes on it.
Love the black headers too.

You only live once -- go for it.
I had the same problem going for the Parabellum. Now after having it for over four seasons I'm glad I went for it. It has added an extra level of enjoyment to an otherwise great machine.

Re: Pricey, but I'm very happy.
Nice! I've thought about that thing for my bike more than once. You gotta fill us in on how the noise/turbulence is with that thing.
Also, every time I see your bike I want to powder coat my rims black. But that'd require washing it and not riding it for a bit. Oh well.

Very nice. Have you considered removing the amber reflectors on the forks?

That's a great looking fairing/windscreen. Looks stock!

I guess we won't be getting a report on noise levels any time soon then. Damn.VanDan wrote:Bike is in storage for the next couple months but it will be done before it goes back on the road.websterize wrote:Very nice. Have you considered removing the amber reflectors on the forks?
Re: Pricey, but I'm very happy.
Great stuff!
About the noise I would suspect there won't be much (notice on the front the little gap between the fairing and the screen ...).

Looks great. IMHO, this is the best looking option for the R12R among all the other windshields. Makes it look less like a dad bike, and vanity was never cheap. If it is functional too then you have a winner. And yes, you only live once.

It looks great, only after market screen I think actually looks good on the bike. Thank god it's as pricey as it is or I would be sorely tempted
Re: Pricey, but I'm very happy.
What is the finish on the header pipes? Did it go over the Chrome?

The headers are ceramic coated which is able to handle the heat. Goes overtop of the chrome.ammolab wrote:What is the finish on the header pipes? Did it go over the Chrome?
Works great and not that expensive.

Re: Pricey, but I'm very happy.

Where did you get the ceramic coating for the header pipes? About how much did it cost. Really like the look!VanDan wrote:The headers are ceramic coated which is able to handle the heat. Goes overtop of the chrome.ammolab wrote:What is the finish on the header pipes? Did it go over the Chrome?

Had them done locally here in Vancouver, Canada. Was about $150 if I recall correctly.
