What's better to get a new aftermarket upper right fairing like this

or a used one.
Would I see any fitting problems with the new fairing?

That's fiberglass. So NO. Get a used one.

Florida, the only place where you need your windshield wipers and sunglasses. At the same time.

You would have to paint either way so I would go with a used one.

Yes, its prone to cracking under high vibrations.

The stock is abs injection molded plastic. That's your best bet unless you can do carbon fibre work.
