Title: For those of you with colored (neither black nor dark) fairings...PIC UPDATE
Post by: DucHead on January 12, 2009, 07:41:14 PM
I painted the inside of my front fairing satin black (w/Krylon for plastic).

Sorry for the shitty pics of it bolted up, but on the second pic the "bracket" portion of the windscreen is much less noticeable than when it was red.

To be clear here folks, I believe what he did was paint the inside of the fairing black, not the actual windscreen. Sounds like some people were confused.

Yep, thanks.  I edited my initial post to be accurate.

Actually, it looks like everyone - save you - was confused.  :-\  Sorry.

However, the first pic says it all.

Nevertheless, here's a shot of my ugly radiator:

Sorry, I misunderstood.  Photobucket is blocked at work so I couldn't see the pics.  I'll have to check the pics out later.

No problem.  At least I got to see your cool DP fairing (I like the skull too).  I don't think that I've seen pics of your bike since TOB.

pompetta,
Finally got around to checking the thread again at home.  Now I see what you mean.  I really like what you've done.  Nice mod.

Nice Dave. I think I am going to finally get around to painting mine today, if it warms up a little.

Ah Sir, I believe the correct terminology is "Fairing of Color".
