I've owned my VX for not quite a year.

I thought it looked unfinished with the luggage, but without some sort of a fairing.

I liked the TCP fairing, but they are not available in the US.

Powerbronze has some good looking fairings, but since I'm a cheapskate :) I didn't want to spend what it would cost to get one of the PB fairings.

Then I started eyeballing the Bandits and thought they kind of looked similar to the VX lines. I was able to find the Bandit fairing by lurking on the Bandit mail list.

I've got about $300.00 total in the conversion. The color was close enough that I'm
not going to bother painting.

The weather protection isn't that great, but I think it really finishes the appearance of the bike.

I'm planning on buying either a Rifle, National Cycle or Zero Gravity windscreen this spring depending which one will fit my needs(wants).

The bags were a Suzuki option. They are actually Krauser K2's, I think.

Maybe somebody with more knowledge of the Krauser products would
know. The bags are not as large as I would like, they will not hold a
helmet, but they  work fine for the weekend jaunts around the Ozarks
