    Got a Fairing! pictures 2/14/05

    I just won this fairing on ebay. now I hope I can make it fit on my '80 GS1100E. It has the mounting hardware on it and the seller says all that is needed in some hoseclamps to attach it. I'm assuming that it is universal like my windshield. Any advice would be welcome.

      I gotta say that's the first fairing I've seen with a rectangle headlight opening. Please, Please let me know if it doesn't fit.

      Good Luck. Great find.

              I got it yesterday! I haven't taken it to the bike to check the fit but it looks like it may be an exact fit. I might do that tomorrow. I might need to modify the mounts, maybe. The only thing I'm worried about is the fit around the speedo/tach.
              It appears that all I'll need is 4 radiator clamps to mount it to the shocks.

                I cost as much as the price to ship it. I'm very pleased so far.

                  Looks like it's gonna fit! I'm going to replace all the nuts and bolts with new stainless steel hardware and clean up the mounting brackets. So it will go on during the spring tune up and handlebar change.

                    Believe in truth. To abandon fact is to abandon freedom.

                      will do. I'm planning on having the bars and fairing on by the end of the month

                        Here are the pictures I promised of the new Superbike bars and the 1984 Vetter Sting fairing. I found a jpg of the sting owners manual on the web. That's how I know the year. It fit perfect, took me 1.5 hours to do the bars and the fairing. All I did was buy new nuts and bolts for the fairing. Now if I could only ride it. Maybe tomorrow, the weather guessers are saying dry and 58 tomorrow afternoon.




                        one more

                        Notice the new saddle bags from my wife.
                        When the weather clears I'll get a new picture for the gallery.

                          Hey Chuck,
                          looks great, that was a great find.
                          Are you plannng to paint or keep the sort of " street fighter " look. If you keep it black, an angular chin (or? "belly") faring in black would really set it off.
                          Once again, looks great, good luck with the weather gods.
