Hello Vector,
Your “journey” to Vanderhall sounds similar to mine; I just started a little earlier.
Re: the dam hood clips:
See “Texas Oatmeal” on the net ( you-tube). He has solved that problem to some degree by replacing the fasteners with Rivnuts fasteners. Seems one standard size rivnut fits the frame cavities but to fit the bolt thru the hood ( actually a full fairing of course) you have to enlarge the holes in the hood.
There may be another even better solution but this is the one I found and am debating doing.
Texas Oatmeal has a series of mods and enhancements posted to his site.
I was hoping to get some kind of rally going for Vanderhall owners but I have received no interest on this forum. Now, of course, the Virus is going to squash most of the riding season for that and may come back in the fall before we have a vaccine for it.
Oh well, maybe next year.
Stay strong in Christ,
