    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    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 need some help.

I want to see how this fairing:

Will look on this bike:
rENO-bRUCESKUNK.jpg


Or on this bike:
M-tos20GS1000S.jpg


And if you could make the fairing orange on Bruce's bike, (The black one) that'd be awesome!

I'm planning on putting a GS1150 fairing on my GS1000
 
despite the fact that I really don't think this bike should have a fairing, here is a quick attempt on one of them (making it orange really screwed with the artifacting in the image, so I kept it blue - you'll have to imagine it).

Thanks Ishmael.
Do you figure that's about right, scale and all? I don't know if I'll put it on if it's that big.
 
This is my attempt posted on the other thread... didn't see this one. Scale must be pretty close as I did it so the existing headlight was a touch smaller than the front of the fairing.

I don't do orange either (too much work to put the highlights etc back in)

Don't do it!

Don't do it!

That fairing just looks wrong on that bike.
 
Yeah. I admit. It doesn'tlook as good as I thought it would.

Billy, just make it look like an "S". Thats what I'm doing right now.
Mine is going to be a "what if" like my 550.
So, what do you think a 78 1000S would have looked like?

Yeah. I could imagine that.
 
Sorry I couldn;t do this yet. The boss/wife/kids have me strapped. I will give it a try tonight.
 
Well, I finally got a little time anyway.
I didn't do any better than Ishamael or Salty Monk with the Renobruceskunk photo so I trashed it and fucused on others (cheated a little also by downloading one from the net.)

Please excuse the damage to the car in this photochop - it was entirely intentional :) .

Please be aware that in all the photoshop attempts the "1150" fairing is out of scale, the side panels of the fairing are the same height as the cylinder block and head of 1000/1100 motor.
