Very nice, but please if it must have a front light don't just tack it onto the front of the fairing

Is the cage over the tank cap to stop the engine hand grenade fragments hitting the rider?

Yes and no, overall shape I like, but the detailing is like something off a Studebaker

and if you 'must' tack it on the front, at least have the wire coming out the fairing behind the light, not exposed like that !

I can't help but think it's a shame that an original Benelli 354 has been ripped apart to make this. There can't be many of them left.
