IOM Saturno fairing rubbing on radiator

Hi there,
My IOM Saturno 500 front fairing is rubbing against the side of the radiator (circled in image below).

Is there supposed to be something screwed into the thread (arrow)? I can't find anything in the manual.

One option might be to install a rubber stop in this thread which will push the fairing out slightly at this point.
Second option might be to use a longer mounting bolt, with longer rubber stop, to push the fairing outward slightly.

I think this will be different on non-IOM bikes as the fairing is different.

Any help ideas appreciated..... Rangy

Yeah, I have the same on my 500 IOM. There is nothing screwed in this hole on my bike. I have just installed a piece of self-adhesive rubber inside the fairing at this point so it doesn't rub on the radiator.

Thanks for that Lez, and HP.
I bolted a rubber doorstop onto it which holds the fairing just off the radiator.
Will finish it better, but tested it out today and it seems ok.
