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...

Has anybody heard of this company, and do you know if they still exist... or where to locate them? Found a pic of a pretty good looking fairing for '82 gs1100, but cannot find anything about this company.
Thanks in advance

I think Dennis Kirk still carries them. It's worth a shot.
Doze.
 
I have had 2 tracy streetfighters in my posession during the last 3 years. The first one was on he bike when i bought it. The second was NOS blem. Doze, I dont think they are made any more. I went nuts trying to find the particular model I wanted. I eventuallu sold them. I looked on ebay for a year for the second one I purchased. I would be tickled to find out that they still make some tracy items.

Now thats my kind of a wind screen. The streetfighter was just too large for my taste. And I have to be broke at the moment :( This one covered the headlight. The one on ebay sits on top of the headlight.

I could be wrong, but I think Tracy is out of business. I had a tracy stilletto that I bought used when I had my 450, it worked well and looked really good.....but the 450 was also my first bike....which means it got dumped, end of the windsheild. I tried to find another one and was told then that they were out of business (This would have been '91- '92) > i remember when I was a kid one of my dad's buddies had a whole slew of tracy accessories( gloves, boots, tank bag, etc) and I remember reading good reviews about therir products. I did see awhile ago another company that had a windshield that looked an awful lot like the stilletto, but I don't remember the name or if they might have other products simmilar to the old Tracy designs.
 
tracy folded in the mid ninties, i was working at a friend's bike shop back then. too bad 'cause they had nice stuff :(

I saw a stiletto last year. it would have been exactly what i wanted. i didnt bid on it. We cant have everything. I still havent replaced those 160 jets that my wife threw in the garbage by mistake Marty. :( :( :(
 
Sorry that didn't work out , Scotty, especially after I dragged my feet on getting them to you. When the Shop was trying to figure out the remaining problems and asked me what I had already done, they're response when I told them about the 160's was something like "yeah, riiiight!!!!" I finally got them to believe me....i think.
 
I have a windscreen like the one on eBay I didn't know it was Tracy Design ! The only problem with it is painted orange/red chameleon paint (can't see thorugh it) but has all mounting hardware and one crack fiberglassed on the right side (or left ??) not very noticeable ! will let it go for 40 plus s/H call 505 710 1447
 
If this brand isn't made anymore...that shouldn't be a problem, right? I mean, aren't there plently of other new windshields out there that would fit our old GS's...right?

If so, please name some of these brands...
