[QUOTE=Eddieb;1130397300]Had a google today and found a few pics of the prototype Safari fairing fitted to a bike, no pics of the final version though which is different in places.

Bigger fuel tanks, frame mounted fairings? why didn't you just get a KLR in the first place?

Cause it's still way cooler than a KLR. Plus I test sat on a KLR or 2 and they weren't significantly smaller than the 950, too big and top heavy for me.

The fairing attaches to the tank but not to the frame.

It's still the better part of 80kg's lighter than the PD and does suit me better.

As soon as I saw the pic it reminded me of a Storm Trooper from Star Wars.

I personally prefer the naked look ( on trail bikes anyway)

I see you've made 5 posts on KB and 4 of them are negative/derogatory and very unhelpful.
