Windjammer mounted.

[GS1000G Shopper]

I'll keep an eye on this thread since I'll be doing the same thing (to the same year, color, and model ) in less than a month.

My WJ came off an '81 Wing, but I have bought a GS bracket for it (picked up some matching lowers also). I'm going to use the Cyclesound housing to mount my GPS/Audio unit as well as putting some gauges in the speaker openings.

Looking forward to some pics.

I'm working on installing my WJ now & found the aftermarket bars on the bike are the problem. And BTW,

Never leave home without mine up here in bug country. Craig Vetter can sell you anything you need for this relics. They really can't be beat for bug, wind or rain protection. Plus the storage and the music. I have an MP3 player velcroed to my clutch mount that I run through a cassette adapter in the radio and it works smooth. Included a photo of this. The player can play all day easy and can recharge off of the cigarette lighter in the fairing. I think it is only fitting to have a Vetter on an older GS touring. Kind of period correct since the Vetters were at their peak during this time. All in your taste tho I think. Some people can't stand the barn door feeling of a Vetter. Peace all!

Hey, I'm glad to hear you finally got your fairing. I love mine although it rattles a bit going over the bumps, but oh well. Love the lowers too. Way too hot in the summer but man what a leg saver in the fall and winter. Not only do they keep the wind off your shins, but it forces the heat from the motor up over your thighs too. Definately a nice option to have!! There's pics of mine in the webshots link below.

Oh, yeah, the Jammer is the way to go for wind/rain protection......but hot in the Summer!!! I had the full deal on my GS650GL, but let it go with the trade for the GS850.

Now I'm trying to find the right (smaller) fairing to suit the 850.....the high, stock bars invoke a sail at highway speed, and a little bar-mounted fly screen makes buffeting unbearable, even with adjusting the angle down.

I'm thinking superbike bars for starters, maybe the fly screen would work better.....
