      Quick tips? Line up the brackets, insert bolts and nuts.

            I don't have one, and I was wondering if before I got one, if there was anything I should know before I purchase it. I would pait it about the same color as my bike, which is the factory navy blue. Thanks.

              I have one that is still new in the box.

              One place to get one is on ebay, that's where I got mine.
              (When I got my 1000, it had a Maer Cafe fairing on it, but it was damaged so I removed it).

              I decided not to use the new one I got. There isn't anything wrong with it, I just decided not to go with that type of fairing.
              I haven't put it up for sale, yet, but if you need one I will sell it for less than I paid for it. It comes with brackets and of course, a windscreen.

              Feel free to PM if you want more info.

                  That's very selfless of you to think of others!

                  I actually hadn't had a chance to think about selling it until now.
                  (I just moved last year and so many parts are still in boxes!)

                  I suggested using the PM function since this isn't a classified thread. I figured everybody already has one, anyway :<) Anyway, PM is good, I'll put it on the classified later...

                  Probably want $50,plus shipping, I paid $70, still in box. Here's the link to the part on ebay:

                    Is this the model for a square light? If so, could it be repaired? If that is the case, I'd like to give it a try. How much would you sell it for?

                      It was for a round light. It had minor damage, repairable, but I am going with a fly screen so I gave it away already, sorry!

                        No problem! I'm looking for a square one anyway! Thanks!
