What do you think looks better on a Monster, WITH a headlight fairing or WITHOUT?
I'm not sure what to do :scratch:

looks better without, its a naked bike, but its sure more comfy with one!

I'm thinking if I get the clip ons what will go better.
Go for a custom carbon jobbie like mine - smaller than the original item but just as efficient on cutting down the wind factor - although not sure you could call my S4 naked anymore - more like "carbonized".

The fairings look great but cause so much wind buffeting and bad handling they have to be removed.

Everyone who has commented said it looks better without but the 'With' option is winning :chuckle:

I think they look better with the fairing, as it hides the ugly black plastic clocks and makes the old school headlight look a little bit more modern :)
oh, and it looks a bit sportier like the S2/S4 models :)

maybe its because they look better without, and the people voting for them are embarrassed? :look:

Or people don't want to waste time talking about something which is simply matter of personal taste?

true, i know that having a fairing is easier IMHO, thats one thing i never liked with my 600, but my S4 has a nice one which makes for easier riding sometimes

I like them with or without. Makes no real differance other than personal choice. The new monster has the most tiny thing god ever made and dearer too :eek:. It takes 2 mins to remove if you dont want it on but doesn't over power the look of bike. More of a clocks fairing.

I think I'm going to leave it on, get the tinted screen and finish off the black stripe that is on my bike :cool:
