I went on a winter ride, had no fairings or windshield. Full face though, and a lot of thermals. It can be done with little issue. So for me, a fairing isn't a big deal. I also wasn't going 100 mph trying to make a goal.

Bags can be done for sub $150. I had soft bags on my trip, and they worked well. I had those, and could have packed differently to get my weight a lot lower but it was all good. I strapped my tent, sleeping bag, pad to my sissy bar.
Turbos, Hondas, 4-bangers, what could go wrong?
