You talk to yourself eh ?

That's ok.

I talk to machines, usually it's something like "Please, please don't scrap this job..."

Nice narration.

For an F model, definetly keep it full F.

+1 Keep it faired. BTW I still have a scratched right side fairing if you want it. Also...Where did you get the tank grip from?

Full Faring for sure.  Throw some bondo on that fairing.  It's a pain to deal with, but it will be as good as new after a few pain staking hours.

Didn't watch the whole video, but anyway, if the choice is between semi-faired or fully faired, I'd say:
fully faired
OR
total naked.
Nothing in between. :thumb:
I'm biased too (towards naked GS's :icon_mrgreen:), but in my opinion full fairing's better than semi. :thumb:
Just my 0.02 €. :icon_mrgreen:

Dude keep it faired on one side only. It's sure to raise some eyebrows.

Seriously tho, fairings ftw
