I actually can't stand those.  The traditional round headlight suits the bike so much more, and simply looks better.  Acerbis stuff sacrafices road legal (and good) lighting and the abillity to actually monitor your bike for poor looks and poor wind protection...plus about 50 other things I dislike about them...but hey, your bike, if you dig it cool.

Nice set up.  I would have kept the stock headlight just cause I am cheap like that, but it looks good.  Tighten and lube that chain fool.  Mr T pitys the fool who dont lube his chain.

Is this from "Fly-n-Cycle" ???  I have seen a couple more of their fairings that I do like the look of... here is a link.  http://www.flyncycle.com/acatalog/Headlights.html
How is the quality on it?  I like the Dash models, but I am wondering if they are made quality or whether it has injection mold seams all over it and looks chinese.  They are so cheap compared to other mini fairings you could get...

I like those handlebars.  Wish my Gixxer 750 forks mounted something other than the clip-ons.

you can get risers that bolt on to your bike to hold these kind of handlebars
