Windjammer mods?

[Guest]

Since I have an extra Windjammer IV that came on a parts bike I bought and it's in "less than pristine" condition I've decided that I need to do something to change it's appearance. Something about that round headlight sticking out the front and those upswept running/turn lights just turn me off. I love having the fairing and don't think I'd want to be without one now but the look just turns me off. I'm thinking that what it needs are some horizontal lines. Although I have no experience with fiberglass I'm thinking about studying up and attempting to make some kind of cover/bra type of arrangement that will cover the lower part of the windshield and those hideous turn signals. I would really like to try to adapt some kind of square headlight to this set-up and also some kind of horizontal amber lights or at least horizontal openings in the cover that show part of the existing lights. Anybody ever seen anything like this? Sound feasible? Should I forget this whole thing and look for a different kind of fairing (Hondaline or something)?

Incidentally, the earlier generation of that same fairing came without integrated turn signals - instead it had standard stalks sticking out at mid level. Perhaps you should check Craigslist/Ebay for one of those and sell the one you have (or maybe the seller wants to swap?) to keep things even?

Also, the integrated lenses are getting hard to find (the old glue causes them to pop off and the rider never even sees them go - ask me how I know, twice) so if yours are in good shape you'll definitely want to sell them off and glass over the openings rather than just covering them up.
