    Wes Cooley

    can anyone tell me whether or not on original GS1000S Wes Cooley if there is to be an orange round reflector mounted on each side in front hanging from underneath the front fairing (cowling)?

        Yes those are stock, and not common to see them on the GS1000S.







        I made about 25 sets of those brackets a few years ago.

        BTW I still have 3-4 sets left over if anyone needs a set.

          Ed, everytime I see that bike, I just marvel at your stunning workmanship, thanks for the inspiration.

            Thanks David.

            The point of posting the photo is to show the reflector. Again, the reflector and bracket are shown in the OEM parts fishe. The reflectors are still available brand new too, just not the brackets.

              Sure is a beauty, Ed.
              Another small detail but one that always catches my eye is the perfect alignment of the seat trim and tailpiece.
