I was looking to buy one for the s4r but I couldn't find one that had some ventilation, visibility and kept the structural integrity. Form and function.

Actually, two out of three. Original function was to provide total environmental closure; the screens are open to the environment.

But, consider this nit pick is coming from someone who runs SpeedyMoto Leggeros which are mucho more open to the environment.  ;D

Nice job! I will be very surprised if your design is not copied.

BTW, what type of paint is that on the belt edges? They are painted, right?

Interesting as the newer bikes have belt covers with air filters on them.

Open is my favorite look and I like how the stainless flows down to the exhaust system.  Have you ever thought about a carbon fiber model of what you made? Especially if you have a carbon fiber front fender.  If Interested let me know I own a small company that can make just about anything in perpreg (dry) carbon fiber.  It looks like you put a ton of time into that bike.
