Suggestions onWindshield for 79 750 L

[Greg O.]

Hi everyone, it has been a while since I was in here. I understand the forum was down for some time.

I did a search for threads that used to be here on windshield fitment, but I guess they are gone now.

I want to install a large windshield on my 79 gs750L. I had a small sport windshield, and did not like it. Any suggestions?

Hey, Greg,

Look at my wife's bike in the sig line. That is the National Cycle Plexifairing 2. We have since replaced it with the Plexifairing 3, which only differs by having slightly longer legs below the lower mounting points. Lots of good protection for everything from your knees up, and minimal influence from crosswinds and turbulence.

In the link above, it looks like they have renamed the Plexifairing 2 to Plexifairing GT.

The bad news is that they have apparently raised the prices.
MSRP on the PF3 is now $190 for clear, $195 for the light tint.

Hey Steve,
Did you paint the bars black on your wifes bike?

I've been thinking about painting both the bars and the mirrors on mine because the chrome is in pretty bad shape.

The bars are black, but I did not paint them. They happen to be bars from a 1980 Kawasaki KZ1300B, which came from the factory in black. It also happens to be the only year that particular model was made.
I happen to know that bike because I had a '79 KZ1300A and watched the differences through the years.
