well, my dealer ordered the parts for me, should be here next week...the fairing, tank shroud and fender, already painted to match, come to less than 300 bux, not too awful. I'm just glad i didn't get to that intersection a tenth of a second sooner or i'd have a parts bike on my hands. 
In the interim, my roomie and sister MZer, Cattard, fitted an old GSXR fender and carved a new fairing piece out of the remains of the busted fender.... ratbiked but not too bad actually...
BTW, I'm convinced the skateboard wheels on the axle ends saved me a lot of rash damage--i'd recommend adding them onto the bike to anyone.

Like the look of the black rims and what exhaust can have you got fitted.

thanks for posting the GIANORMOUS photo... 
You just maxed out the set width of the entire thread. 
We've all seen this photo several times by now in other threads... do you mind pulling it and resizing it down to 600 pixels or less wide?? That'll make it load faster and this thread will be a lot easier to read on smaller monitors. Or if you cant resize it, yank it and post it in the album section. Thanks in advance! 
I do love those black rims (I have black rims on my Duc). Your bike looks great - but pictures need captions. Can ya tell us the mods you've done and how you like them? Info! that's what this thread is for.
Ivan

Boysie, post a shot of your headlight assembly, looks like an Acerbis ???
The fork guards are from MZ only right, but made by Acerbis......
the res of pictures that fit the best is 640 x 480.... bike looks great..... have you looked at the Motrax Site they make wonderful turn signals etc I'm gonna order a rear LED tailight soon.....
