Very nice looking! You are correct that you will have this for a long time.

One thing, you know that the fairing is not stock? Its off of a R90/R100S model BMW and did not come on the R75/6. That said, I did the same thing and love the "S" model fairing.

One upgrade you might want to look at is the dual disk front end off of a R100S/RS. Bolt on and doubles your front braking. Also might look at a front fork brace to keep them rigid.

Good to see you on an old BMW! They are a lot of fun to ride! If you ever need to remove the exhaust, let me know, will loan you the required wrench.
