    New Fairing Mounted

    Finally got the new fairing mounted this week..just got back from a nice 300mile ride..up and around lake country here in MN...








    Love the fairing so far..does make a difference..not nearly as much wind and it stabilizes the bike at speed..well worth the $90 I paid..

      I like the Maier fairing. Looks great. So what are your thoughts about it? I've been looking at a few fairings recently...

      And where did you find it? On eBay, they're priced at $120.

          I really like it..cuts down on wind and the bike feels really solid and stable at speeds above 70mph..
          I found it at "Shadetree Powersports"..they have 2 stores one in MN and one in Ohio..these were on closeout for $90 their was one left in the round headlight version in MN...not sure how many the ohio store had..

              parts-unlimited sells them but you can only get them thru a dealer, around $120. There are 2 different sized ones for the 7" round head light. I got the bigger one and it's def. not too big. I wouldn't want the smaller one.

                That looks really cool, sporty and functional. I think it resembles the factory cafe fairing on the Moto Guzzi V50 "Monza."

                I also like your custom side cover treatment, with the metal panels. I had to do something similar to that with my Honda VF700S when I lost one of the plastic side panels and a replacement turned out to be near-unobtainium.

                Are those OEM shocks on your GS750? How do you like them? I'm taking an informal poll (over in the tires, suspension, brakes forum). I just replaced the set of S&W street strokers my bike came with when I bought it, with a used OEM set off of Ebay - the aftermarket shocks were way too stiff for my needs.

                  The shocks are OEM..no leaks and work good..actually looking to replace the ones I have with something more adjustable and with black springs,,not a fan of chrome..just havent found a good deal yet...thanks for the reply!
