How close to Alaska Blue is Koenigsblau? Reason I ask is because I escaped into the wild for a couple of hours today after six weeks of not riding the K and discovered that I had forgotten how painful riding a bike with a slight lean-forward position now is (arthritis in both wrists). I've already fitted naked bars and put a 25mm riser underneath them, so I've really hit the limit that way. I briefly considered selling Low Flying Brick and keep Kostenlos (thanks Stu!) but that thought stung a bit after 78,000 miles. So the next thought was to fit a nice Koenigblau K100LT/K1100LT fairing and bars, but what's the difference in shade? Any?
The other possibility is to put RT/LT bars on LFB, but what does that do to the aerodynamics (i.e. getting rid of the wet stuff at speed) behind the RS fairing? Making new brake lines and control cables and extending the wiring is not a problem.
