    1978 gs750 front fairing?

    Hey all,

    Just wondering if this is a gs750 piece, or if this is custom, or off another GS cycle? Anyone know where I can get one of these front fairing/windshields?



    Thanks in advance, I tried searching, but I didnt have any luck.

    I believe that is a Maier. J.C. Whitney among others carry them.

          That's not a Maier. Maier's go for about $120 new.
          That is an EMGO.

          Search for "Cafe Fairing" on Ebay & that one will pop up several times over. You can get a new one for about $50 if you search a bit.

            EMGO is correct. I have the same fairing on my 78 550 and I found it on eBay.

                They are a bit "cheap" feeling compared to the Maier ones in build quality but adequate...

                You get what you pay for i guess. I've had both types at one time or another & a Givi as well (which is on another level up again from the Maier in terms of quality of build)
