Looks great.

Cool mirrors do they work better and what are they?

Thx

I do not mind funky chicken (it is funky) but problem was it still did not help much.

Funny is the fact that all of 749/999 users make the same move to use mirrors, with out consulting.

Cheers

Do you mean the air tubes ? The stock ones are still there and was even as stupid to buy carbon covers until I realised that my QB Carbon fairings covered the tubes anyway.

All the original fitted fairings, nosecone and tailpiece are wrapped in bubblewrap and stored in my loft .
