Hmmm interesting question...
My first guess would have been the Kawasaki GPz750 Turbo, but upon
reflection I suspect the Yamaha 650 turbo was a little earlier.
The Gold Wing wasn't fully faired until the 1500 (the 1200 had a 3/4
fairing) so it's not those, and the CX500 turbo only had a 3/4 fairing
as well.
The Honda VT250FII and the Honda VFR1000R are later than the two turbo's
as well I think.
Of course I've probably forgotten some very obvious model

So you're not really a ponce, you just call yourself, and act like, one?

You, and I, will never know. Stick with what you've got. That green stuff
the other side of the fence is mostly weeds.
