    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.

Headlight removal from Windjammer IV

Anyone know how to remove the headlight assembly from a Windjammer IV fairing. Must be something I'm missing as I can't figure it out . . .
 
I believe there's a locking tab on the outer edge of the retaining ring that you have to press, and then the retaining ring can "unscrew" about a quarter turn and come off.

go to the Vetter site, (link below) its all the way at the bottom of the page. Rob http://www.craigvetter.com/pages/Vetter_Fairings/All_Vetter_instructions.html

Beginning in 1979, the new owner of Vetter Corp produced several fairings that I did not think worthy of the Vetter name. They will not show up on my pages. After Bell aquired the devastated company, I designed a fairing for them, the Bullet which they built for a couple of years . The Bell folks were more comfortable making helmets.

[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,Geneva,Swiss,SunSans-Regular]At the bottom is a little slot. Use a screwdriver to push it in slightly. The chrome ring unscrews like a jar lid.[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,Geneva,Swiss,SunSans-Regular]It is a very clever design. [/FONT]
By the way, today when a headlight burns out, I simply go to Wal Mart and buy a sealed beam halogen unit for about $9.00. It has a car pattern but I think it is just fine for the price.
