I think it looks GREAT! I love the bike. I love the hack. It's a great marriage there.

Very nice, yes sir

I wish I still had my brown w/ tiny gold flacks in the paint GS850-81. The smoothest ride ever & unbelievably reliable.

I like it- good looking setup. Where did you get the fairing? Is it an aftermarket, or is it off another bike? Whatever it is, it looks right at home on the GS.
