I have the R&G Radiator guard too, you dont actually need to take fairings off to install it, but if you have the time and bother it helps. Mine took a little bending on the bottom bits to get it to fit, but it fits very firmly and isnt going to go anywhere.
You only need to undo a few screws, slide the Rad guard in (and this is the tricky part and will take a fair bit of fiddling) and screw it all back up and done.
Its really loud i have the db killer in and its still loud, shakes my whole garage and i get paranoid near police thinking they'll pull me over for it. Worth it though heads turn left and right and people will see you and hear you +1 for motorcycle awareness =).
