I think the mud daubers might like to infiltrate the mufflers, a bit like rodents can nest in the airbox?

Bike looks fantastic and I'll bet it sounds good up thru the hills as it travels up and down the rev range.

Need some help here guys, where exactly should the leading edge (headlight cut out ) of the fairing fit?
the headlight rim return is alot less than a original R90S.

Can you still adjust the headlight with that configuration?

I believe the /5 had a smaller diameter headlight than the /6 -> ?
Same size as the R65, I think.
/5 riders would install a R65 reflector/ring to get a halogen light easily, IIRC.
