I installed the Wing Stuff Belly Pan. God I hate all the dam plastic on our bikes that has to removed to do any work! One of the 4 slotted holes on the pan didn't quite line up, but II made it work. My concern: the front section of the pan attaches to the rear portion with 2 screws, there is nothing supporting the front part of the forward portion of the pan. Will wind get in there and rip the sucker off? Has anyone tried to secure the front of the pan or is it ok as is?  There is a very small gap between the front pan section and our lower front cowl. It seems wind will jar it loose??

Same on my F6B.  It's designed to tuck in.

Wow, why didn't I figure that out, my have had a senior moment. Thanks JackB and F6Dave.  I guess I "couldn't see the forest for the trees"! Tucking the front portion of the pan in under the shroud was not mentioned in the directions. My bad.

Same for me. Tucked mine under and it has had no problem whatsoever. Removed it a couple times for oil changes and noticed some nice rock hits on the plate. It is definitely doing its job.

I have had my Valk for 5 years now. It is amazing a stone has not punctured  that cheap plastic "bag" Honda designed for a coolent tank. What were they thinking?  Why couldn't they have designed it to be made of hard plastic like what you would find in our cars?  I feel much much better now that the "bag" is protected.
