I am looking to be getting a faring for my bike.
I am particularly looking at the Givi a750.
I have seen a huge amount of options for the Gs, and would like to see which one is gonna do the 2 things I want.
Keep the wind off my chest, while cutting the lift when I have my chin on the tank.
And it has to look good.

I could probobly do a search, but I am way to damn lazy right now.

Thaks for any help

I have a Givi a750 and really like it.  The only drawback is that it screws into the headlamp bucket.  The left side of mine is stripped pretty good from adjusting the screen just 1 or 2 times.  But if you're careful, you could probably avoid that.  It doesn't really affect the functionality of the screen itself.  Here are some pictures:

YEa I think I am going with the Givi.
But now the question is, will the "ducati" yellow one match the yellow on my 99??
I Dont think the black will look quite right.

I don't know about the yellow, but the ducati red does not match the italian red of my '93, it's a tad darker. I still think it's better than black though.
One thing I don't like much about the givi 750 is that it leaves a small opening btw the fairing and the headlight. You can see it in Sheps' 3rd picture. At night, you can see light from the headlight reflecting there. It's just a little annoyance. Other than that, I would not hesitate to reccomend it. I like the  way it looks and it is very effective at highway speed.

Thank you for posting this info. I was thinking of bying that fairing as my current Airstar (600, I think) which came with my bike is a little bit ugly in my eyes. So I guess I'll buy the 750 next summer.  :thumb:
