Welcome!

The RS fairings on R65s is much more popular in Europe than over here - we have another member, Trolle, who did a very nice job of adding the fairing to his bike.  Did you buy yours with the fairing or do it yourself?   The paintwork seems to match nicely, but the little bambino has some growing to do before reaching the controls - probably a good thing for a few years yet!

The RS fairings was in the bike when I bought it. At the beginning I was thinking about taking it out but it's wonderful for raining and/or cold weather and now I can't survive without that...
Definitively a good idea (imho). I'll try to post some pictures more.
Cheers.
