Looks new to me! Might have to find one of those myself or get mine redone. I've also got a biege corbin in my parts stash but the sight of it makes my eyes hurt, it is comfy though. Like it should come with an ottoman comfy.

That's a great deal, considering what new ones go for, like, $700 plus?
Great condition, too!

How do you like it so far?

My R1150RT is like my first wife.  Drop-dead gorgeous, a lot of fun to ride, and damned expensive to maintain.

It is wonderful. It's nice to ride for a couple hours and your butt is the thing that hurts the least.

Isn't that a Pichler fairing?

Yes it is. It is really quiet behind it, very little buffeting.  At first I thought it was ugly, but it grew on me and it is very unique. I did trim the windshield significantly, it was way too tall. I had to stand up on the pegs to see over it.

The seat is quite handsome and comfy looking.  You got it at a really attractive price. 
Good for you.
