    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.

I have an 83' 750es and I have acquired the side fairings to turn it into a full fairing EF and I have not been able to find out if there is some kind of bracket required to mount these pieces. Can anybody help?
 
I've got mine off right now as well as the assorted hardware so I'll be able to take a couple of photos in the next day or so and post them here. They're fairly simple so shouldn't be too hard to reproduce them.
Jim, FYI most of the fiches don't cover models not sold in the US. Models like the GSX400s and the 750EF and nothing in 750s or 700s for 1984.

Sorry Sandy, I did not realize that we in the US were so oblivious to the rest of the world's GS woes :)

Ha Ha!!!! Or is it more like the rest of the world can't get their act together to provide their own information?
 
Are they the suzuki made pieces, or the aftermarket ones sold by lockhart ?
 
I believe they are OEM pieces I will have to check. I will post some photos tonight.
thx,
 
I think the right hand Lockhart cover has a hole in it for the ignition cover and the OEM is solid like the one in my signature.
 
Here's the photos. The rail on the main upper bracket stands out about 4 1/4" from the frame downtube. Hopefully your frame has the mounting studs. They have Dzus fasteners and access behind the fairing while mounting will be next to impossibe so you will have to weld/braze a nut on the brackets instead. Good luck. The upper mounts just bolt through your existing forward and rearward rubber mounts for the existing "ES" fairing. You have to rig up a threaded stud or washers as spacers. Threaded stud would work best.

Thx Sandy, great info. I was checking the panels I have and they are exactly the same as yours which leads me to believe they are OEM. As you know this model was not widely distributed so finding the supports may be on the difficult side but i will find them or fab them!! By the way yours looks awesome, shes in great shape for a 30 yr old!!
