It looks quite similar (Though less vented) to the RoadRacing one on Bobertandsammy’s M900 which he is trying to sell.

Anyway, in amongst all the usual Termis and billet stuff by DPM (remember them?), were a couple of pages of 'pressed aluminium accessories' and it looks like BeePee's bike has the nose fairing. That's the first time I've ever seen some of this aluminium stuff on a UK bike - more popular in Europe but quite scarce over here, I think. |

I had one briefly on my S2R 1000 but the fit left quite a lot to be desired so I swapped it for the carbon version of the standard guard. |

And if you remove the tailpiece you'll find the securing bolts are retained in a cone of resin, you can then rasp that resin down a bit from the bolt shaft and the whole piece will be able to sit lower and flush with the frame as the original design was intended to sit. I did exactly this on mine years back and while few people will notice I think it looks so much better, more 'factory intended' and less like a bolt on extra.
