Givi stuff is expensive but works. They have no lovin' for the GS500.

I use an A755 on my bike. I like it lots :) Yeah, it's on the more expensive side, but I think they look better than the F-16/18 windscreens.
You do know, with the 240 series, you also need a round headlight kit to make it all fit.

How difficult would it be to mount mirrors on it?

I have a Givi A750. It secures to the bike with little metal "ears" that slide in between the headlight and headlight mount (I think). It flexes a little bit at high speeds. I don't think I'd mount mirrors directly to it.

nah, I wouldn't try putting mirrors on a fairing like that. The mirrors would be way too heavy.
Here's my A755

Heh, the only good thing I ever got from JC Whitney... the teardrop cruiser mirrors, wide angle :)

Do my eyes deceive me, or is that a laminar lip windscreen installed? and where did you get it?

Here's the A750 (versus the OEM Suzi) on a PURPLE '92.
(http://gs500.specialgreen.com/img/A750-vs-OEM.jpg)
It doesn't come out as far to the sides, and is a little shorter than the A755 (and doesn't have that "laminar lip flip" at the top).
The one at the start of this thread looks like it was made to fit a box-shaped headlight (not a round headlight).
