    I paid $300.00 for the (now RUNNING! ) bike and the fairing and bags were FREE!
    Besides, I already have a couple of GS's with a Rifle fairing and a little windscreen.
    This one, will be the "traveler" after I make it into an 1150.

        After rustybronco posted these pictures everyone became speechless!

        I will really appreciate more pictures of a Windjammer on a GS, even any with the lowers as well.

          If nobody has a good set before I get home, I will send them your way.

            Steve,
            No problem, just looking around for various colour schemes and matching the Windjammer V decals etc. Even Craig Vetter does not like the Windjammer V decals and suggests going back to the older ones.
            I am slowly eliminating what I am not going to do in this way.
            Keep well.

              Look at my sig. The small top sig picture is my 850 with the 'Jammer IV, the other pictures have the 'Jammer V SS and lowers. It should be similar to what you want. The lowers are actually from a 750 so I had to do some cutting around the engine for it to fit right.

                Dan,
                Thanks I have peered at those a while back but my eyes are not so good anymore! What sort of cutting did you have to do to make them fit?

                  I'll go back and post them in larger detail for you. Since the 750 has a chain and the clutch apparatus is set up differently I had to cut some extra plastic off, shortening the inner sections of the lowers and shaping them around the engine. Doing so also made my carbs accessible without removing the lowers. I'll take some more pictures later today and post them for you. Hope that'll help some.

                    If you click the link in my sig you'll be taken to the "For Sale" thread for my GS1100G. The pics there don't include the lowers, but here is a recent pic of the bike with the lowers installed.

                      Thanks, those are exactly the type of pictures I was looking for. What a beautiful bike!

                        Here are some better picts of mine:
                        There was plastic going back and covering the carb area and it interfered
                        with the clutch cable so I trimmed it off and also rounded out that circle
                        around the cam cover cap.






                        Same thing here on the left side, I had to trim out around the starter,
                        the cam cap and I took off the part that covered the carbs.
