Graduated to a GL1000 (from a GL12)

Quite a nice little mile-eater. How much does the little fairing help? I'm considering something similar in size coupled with Euro-style bars.

Thru the ether from my LP2

If by "help" you mean block wind, it is only helpful if you're in full cafe position - that is pretty much laying on the "tank". When riding upright, it might as well not even be there.

But, it works as designed. Lay down behind it and there's a nice, quiet slipstream pocket.

VERY NICE :music:

Looks good! I'd love to pick up another old wing and make a low slung bike out of it!

Finally got an alternate pair of shocks. Not top of the line, by any means, but progressive spring rate and they actually rebound like they're supposed to. Although still Chinese (against my better judgement), I can actually recommend these as a very attractively priced alternative. I've seen them labeled Emgo and Forsa, but you can find them on eBay - and elsewhere on line for $100 or less!
