The fiche shows different part numbers for left & right. They should be the same length so one might suspect a bent main fairing mount or some other sort of misalignment. I am assuming you don't have the two lower fairing brackets reversed.

Make sure the main fairing bracket is centered on the steering tube. There is a lot of adjustment between all the parts. When I reinstalled my RT fairing I left many of the connections loose as I put it together. That allowed me to move things into position as I installed.

It's difficult to get an accurate measure of each bracket while they are fitted to the bike but, the stick out part of the bracket that has the two holes, goes to the front.
