Hello all.
I am finally going to get rid of the fairings in my '05 GS500 so I need to buy a headlight and the mounting brackets. A few questions:

* Are the SV650 mounting brackets (the things that slide in the forks) compatible with my GS500?
* Do I need something else to mount the headlight?
* Do I need something else to mount the turn signals?
* New turn signals?
* Any suggestion for mirrors?

thanks!

You need headlight ear pieces, the triangle brackets, the round headlight and light assy and turn signals all from a 89-02 GS500. SV crap will not work, and it wont work even if you have katana FE, do no ask how I know. 89-00 GS, I have a set I could part with for the right $$$ ... OK I may mod mine, so I'd prolly not part with nothing. Sorry.
Cool.

As stated, SV stuff wont work.

I have a full setup from an 89-01 GS500. Headlight, mounting brackets, and I can even remove and include the mounting pieces that slide down on the forks. Basically everything you need to convert!

Frankie: I don“t think I will sell them, that would make selling my bike very difficult (cheap!). Good luck on finding them, man.

Average: sent email.
