No regrets whatsoever. I do agree that on a black bike it might not make much difference, but on the Amber Whiskey it is very nice. It would not be the first money I spent, but in the appearance department it is maybe the single biggest difference you can make other than a full custom paint job.

Like the painted inner fairing (Red Sunglow). Think it makes the bike look more expensive. Little bit more custom. (Same with the stock grips)

i was against it because i thought i would be blinded by sun glare , but i have not had any problem with that. i ordered mine from surdyke and got 20% off . it was not even that hard to install and really makes the bike stand out. i also installed the radio faceplate , chrome gauge trim rings and the upgraded speakers. i am going to send out my speedo / tach to gauge mods to install blue led light next winter.

No regrets. Best thing I have done. If your worried about a sun burn, get a car. I have not noticed any more glare than the semi gloss or glass gauges, do notice the fuel cap, but not enough to bother me.

I'm wondering if for Big Blue Pearl because of how much flake is in it that it will get a lot of glare. My bike looks almost black when it's cloudy out but when it's a bright sun the bike looks super bright blue with a huge sparkle.
Can anyone comment on the inner fairing with Big Blue Pearl?
Thanks
