Like the color and lower fairing.  You'll appreciate the flyscreen too.
Nice... :)

Totally cool!  Love the colour!  Do those engine scoops do anything?  I'm thinking of adding one to my 650 for the looks.

Belly pans are primarily for cosmetics.

Race sanctioning bodies usually require something under the motor that can catch oil in the event of a leak, but most of the belly pans available on the aftermarket are not closed enough to satisfy that requirement unless they're modified by the buyer.

The belly pan is great for catching the oil filter when you drop it during an oil and filter change.

Its good at catching spilled oil too.
