No problems with any fouling, but I have lowered my clip-ons 25mm from the standard position.

I did this for two reasons, 1. they would have fouled the fairing in the way I positioned it and 2. I needed them lower as they suit my riding better in the lower position.

The biggest challenge was making up the mountings, which on the scheme of things was a very small problem.

I should be racing at Stars at Darley this year if you want to take a look at it first hand.

I should also be there for the Saturday practise, but if you want any specific information about fitting, or photos, just let me know, I'm in the garage most nights. I'm also swapping the engines in the next few days, so will have all the fairing off if you want any taking of the mounting brackets without the fairing attached.

One thing I will say is the TSR is narrower than the KR-1S, so the RGV radiator is a bit on the tight side, but I am pleased with my decision to go with that fairing.
