thinking of trading my rockster for this, really would like to try a fairing. anyway any issues to look for or know about?  heat, final drive etc. just getting tired of being beat up at the end of consecutive 4-500 mile days. besides maybe I'd use it more. cool site wish i would of found it sooner.

Best "advice" I can give you is to go over the ST-Owners.com forum (http://www.st-owners.com/) and post your questions there.

Lots of riders gripe about the heat - lots don't. Final drive should be cleaned and regreased with Honda Moly 60 at each tire change - no one knows how long a properly maintained final drive will last. 03 ABS models have an electrically adjustable windshield. Just about everyone ends up getting an aftermarket seat. Throttle takes some getting used to, fuel injection can be off or on at low rpm!
