Mostly it does seem to stay that way.
<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content">Hmmmmmmm, Does your fairing bracket have a wing nut on the middle two (it holds the fairing to the L brackets)? Mine does and they are pressing against the factory sunroof fairing and holding the whole thing like an inch or more off the rack. Did you bend your L brackets at all when you installed it? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
Yup, got the wing nuts on both ends of the L brackets.
You definitely have to bend the brackets to make it all fit right. That took a lot of experimenting and getting the outboard L brackets in the correct shape so the fairing bows and also presses tight against the roof was a major PITA.
If you bend the brackets, that'll lower the trailing edge of the fairing (and in so doing get them out of the way of your lights) and will also move the mounting bolts away from your factory wind deflector.
FWIW, if it were me removing the Gobi fairing for a remount, I'd at the same time while you can, remove the factory wind deflector. With both it's impossible to clean behind the Gobi (yes, I do wash it
sometimes). Best I can figure, there's no benefit to having both wind deflectors.
