    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Fairings?!?!

When I bought my GS the PO gave me three fairings to go with it. I dont think he had ever mounted them, he just kindof planned on making a project of them eventually.
So, I was wondering if you guys could ID them for me? I have no idea how these might be mounted, or even if they CAN be mounted.

First one:
This one actually SAYS "Suzuki GS" on the side. Its also a little damaged, but I'm sure some fiberglass bondo and a paint job can fix that up.

Second:
This one is in the best condition of them all, it also comes with a nice clear windshield.

Finally:
Looks nice and Dainese is a pretty good name, but.... I dont see how itll mount...

Mounting the Wes Cooley style should be pretty easy, if you can fab the brackets. Not sure if the Suzuki brackets are the same as required by yours but I can give you some photos and dimensions from mine if you like. Ray
 
The Wes Cooley one doesnt even have any holes in it anywhere, where does it mount?
 
I'm pretty sure you have to drill the holes yourself. I just did it and made my own brackets for a better fit than the ones they come with.
