That looks like an old GIVI windscreen someone matted out. Givi's aren't cheap but they are better quality than Viper, Emgo, Rifle, etc that were the common bolt on fairings. http://www.giviusa.com/caschi_borse_...asp?CO_ID=9581

That's the Dunstall Cafe fairing, very close (and probably the one I'll end up getting). The one I'm looking for has a slanted screen rather than the bubble and note those cut-outs on the side for the turn signals.
Thanks for lookin' though.

Originally posted by TheCafeKid View PostBubba I think that, unless i am wrong, is simply an Emgo, or Viper or whatever fairing you would find on Ebay or any other parts supplier that may call them a "cafe" fairing that has been cut down to the owners liking. They are made of ABS, so with a dremel you could go to town and come up with a pretty nice result. I had one of those fairings on my 1100G for a bit. The fairing itself was nice, but the windscreen that came with it was flimsy and developed stress cracks around the screws. Eventually i just snapped it off. I still have the fairing, and if you can find a windscreen to fit it, lemme know and you can have it for shipping cost. The windscreen shouldnt be too difficult to locate. It mounts easily, just with some L brackets that get bolted on to the headlamp ears. Orrr if you are in no hurry, I can use the one i have here to draw a mould from, and with some direction of what youd like, we could modify the mould and probably make one out of fibreglass in a relatively short amount of time. I have a buddy who is an expert glass man (does the body work for the Miss Budweiser hydrofoil/jetboat whatever) and we are in the design stages of starting a lil custom fiberglass biz that would revolve around making replica side covers for old UJMs (zooks to start with) so this would be another facet we could delve into .
If you had a pic of that fairing, that would be great.
A custom fairing would be sweet but I'm thinkin' low-dough and though I'm sure you guys wouldn't charge an arm and a leg for a fairing, I still couldn't justify the cost. Get that side cover biz going first before you start delving .
I can't believe how hard it is to find that exact fairing, or even close, on any of the big dealers sites .
Thanks

It is close and it is probably the one I will end up getting since this fairing seems impossible to find. Thanks.
