Sorry to hear about the bike. Could have been much worse though; I thought you meant you were injured.

Why would a fairing put your bike down for the count??

Take off all the plastic and ride anyway dude...  :cookoo:

Dunno where you live but no lights is a guaranteed $60 faulty equipment ticket, a requirement for reinspection, and whatever else they find as long as they got ya in my city. It is the bike equivalent of driving with limo tint on your front windows. Mirrors can be replaced with any mirror to pass inspection.
