    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.

Anyone ever have an 850 with one on it? Need to know if they ever made a mount for a G. I found one cheap...

Here's a picture of mine with the quicksilver attached. Yes they did make a mount for the 850G/1100G. The mount I bought I got off of ebay for like $50.00 or so. If you need the modle number off of it I'll get it. I may even part with it. I took the quicksilver and mount off the bike before I sold it and don't know if i want to put it on the 1100 or not. I would really like to sell them both together.

Hope this helps,

Thanks for the pic. I have one being shipped to me that was on an R80 BMW, so that's why I need a mount. I figure if I can't find one I'll just modify one made for somthing else. At least now I have a general idea of how it will look and, I think I'll like it.
 
I would think a reg vetter farring bracket may work. Maybe only need to cut the vetter mounts off and make some new mounts for the Quicksliver

I would not be surprised to find that the larger Windjammer and the smaller Quicksilver actually share the same mount.

That's one of the beauties of Craig Vetter's engineering genius. He had the ability to make things remarkably universal.

IIRC, the mount from the GS400/GS750 fit my '78 GS1000. It was 30 years ago and I
might disremember. With the extension wings, I get a fine, protective pocket from the
knees up. The heavy lexan windscreen is still clear. No buffeting.
