Looks great Matt, Dowco seems to be your choice eh ?
Working on some fairing repair to the 93 (ongoing since
I got it last summer) seems this baby tipped over at
some point before I go it
Mid fairing - of the 3 upper fairing bolt attachment tabs to the
upper cowl , two are snapped off ( front & rear one )
Quick fix when I got it was just to use the middle fairing bolt (unbroken)
and "stick" the other two in for appearances
Now ....... I want 'em done properly .... JB Weld and custom cut16 gauge
sheet steel "hangers" will do the job I hope

Plastics
Sprock,
Good luck with the plastic fabricating. JB Weld works pretty good. Ya Dowco works for me. Lightweight luggage thats easy on and off. Plus it has a waterproof rain hood that hides in it's own zipper pocket when not in use. Oh ya did I mention it's a lot cheaper than the hard stuff .

Just ordered some new rubber for my bike, as well as a new batt, and some tire irons for the bike so I dont get ripped off every tire change. I ended up going with shinko 009's F&R. got em for 141.98 shipped. I am mainly looking for a commuter tire and this fits the bill. I will do a write up on em and take some pics. Now when I get back from school I will do the valve adjust, oil, and plugs.
