Anybody ever tried this fairing?

If the headlight opening is the right size (or modifiable), it could be an option anyway.

I have to say--not to crap on anyone's taste--but I have a GS with white wheels and I think that that fairing is 80's style.  Seriously, there is much better out there.  Stuff that is more in tune with the lines of the bike.  That windscreen looks like an 87FZR a friend of mine had in school.  But he loved that bike.  I suppose it is an option.

Hey, what is wrong with the 80's.

speaking of fairings, anyone seen this one before?


Not sure if it's custom or what, but i don't think I've ever seen it before on gstwins.

It looks factory, but what bugs me is the visible labeling on the RH frame.

It is pre-2001 because of the "package pad" type seat and rear body work.

Maybe this was someone doing a Dgyver type custom build?

If stock, I wonder if this was another market...Europe maybe?

I kind of like it.

What a frigging great post,  got me to laugh out loud... well done. 

About the fairing though, I kinda like it too, the cafe racer look is nice.  The one thing I didn't like is the price, for that much, you could buy this and look like the real deal:

Dang, how big is your monitor?

This fairing is made in spain, and it was intended for the EU market.

It looks very similar to a Sprint fairing I had on a Triumph Trident a few years back.

Perhaps it's a Sprint after market fairing?

I like the full look on that blue one. Looks kind of cruiser/cop-ish. Probably a more honest and elegant look than my falconish looking F model.
