You're out of your cranium.

No my man, you are...

Why put a air cooled engine in an enclosure?

So you have an excuse to add an oil cooler?

Fairing was not my first choice either mostly due to style... really the naked bikes look way more badass, street, and urban... but with freeway riding and all-weather conditions here I don't know that I would ever go naked... maybe in socal, but Id at least add a windscreen. The fairing reduces drag (proven to increase top speed, that guy posted his speed tests a couple days go), cushions the bike from impact (in my case it probably saved my frame, and reduced damage to my forks and tank), and doubt it affects the cooling that much.

The SV650 for example looks weird with the top fairing ($500!) but it is there for a purpose... you need some kind of wind protection if you're going to be hauling ass and don't like being buffeted.

the gs is a baby bike and looks even more so with fairings. GSXR's and CBR's and all the like look great with fairings, yes, but gs' just look dwarfed by them.

my $.02

nightrider

dwarfed, i dont know. Angular or blockier yes. When I look at my F it says "badass commuter". I'm happy.
