Title: WTB: Fairing, belly pan
Post by: adidasguy on August 30, 2010, 12:14:39 PM
For my naked 1992 GS, I want to see what the old, original headlight cowling and belly pan would be like so I want to buy them. Color doesn't matter since I'm repainting her. Anyone that made their bike naked have those for sale?

Ive got an aftermarket "cafe style" fairing. Looks similar to the old, optional headlight fairings. Made by a company called Targa.

I have a belly pan, but you arent getting that  :icon_lol:

Where do you live? Fairing is also blue.

I live in sunny Seattle, WA.
I'm working to bring the bike to original. There is an original fairing on ebay in the UK but I haven't been able to get an answer from the seller on shipping. If an original doesn't turn up quickly, then I'll go for your fairing.
I have a couple sets of original tail fairings/covers coming in. After they come in, I'll decide what color I like then let the others go for sale here. Originals with original decals in really good condition are hard to find. But my Canadian 1992 bike was painted and I want it back to original condition. It may stay black or go blue depending on what tail I like best.
When I get the fairing on, I will have its present windshield for sale. You can see it in the picture game - monster truck picture.

The ebay seller got back to me on the factory original so I bought that one. Thanks for your offer.

Still looking for a belly pan. However, after looking at all the photos here on GSTWINS, I'm beginning to think he doesn't need a belly pan. It seems out of place without a complete fairing. However I am still willing to get one and try it. So..... anyone got one?

alright man, good work on the original. I prefer the look of the belly pan on mine. It covers the ugly manifold and adds some depth to the bike, making it look lower! Good luck!
