Crap! I went down!

Blind, off camber decreasing radius turn with leaves and me for a rider = some nasty looking plastic. Luckily no serious damage to me or the bike but I'm wondering if I should get the cowl and faring fixed or strip it all off and bolt on a headlight?

the twin headlamp from a buell appears to be an inexpensive option..
