Does anyone run their Stella's without the cowls? How does it look?

A lot of people do in Europe to reduce the profile for lane splitting. I personally really like the looks of it but I park outside and really don't want random people to have easy access to my engine or leaving it under the rain.

I was deterred from doing this since it negates the turn signals (the front and rear signals work as a circuit on each side (remove the cowl and disable the front turn signal)...NO TURN SIGNALS and the scooter CANNOT PASS INSPECTION

put on the cowls for inspection then take em off? People already do this with exhausts to pass emissions tests.

Taking off the right cowl will let the motor run much cooler.
