Title: Anyone have a GS500 Targa quarter fairing they want to sell?
Post by: Trwhouse on March 31, 2011, 02:34:25 PM
Hi all,
I'd love to find one of the Targa quarter fairings that were made for early GS500s. You know the one, that mounts on the handlebars.
Someone offered one last year and never came through to sell it.
Anyone have one that they'd sell to me?
I'd prefer it in 1991 blue, but hey, I'm not that picky.
Let me know, and thanks,
Trwhouse  :)

If you're referring to a headlight cowling, I have a new blue 5 Stars one that I don't need.
Its like this:
http://www.motoin.de/Bodywork/Covers/Five-Stars-handlebar-fairing-Cyclop::874.html
Mounts to the 2 bolts that hold the headlight bracket to the fork.
Any interest?

Hi Pictory,

Actually, that listing is just for a replacement windscreen for the Targa fairing.  :)

But thanks for pointing it out.

Best wishes,
Trwhouse

Hi Accidental,

Yes, I did see that one.
It has no mounting parts and it's in poor condition. The windscreen is cracked, etc.

Thanks, though.

Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
Do you have the mounting brackets for it?
How much do you want for it?
Thanks,

Bump.
So I'm still looking for one of the Targa GS500 quarter fairings.
That's an aftermarket Targa fairing, not the OEM Suzuki GS500 tiny quarter fairing.
Anyone have one they can sell me?
Come on, one of you has to have one!
Adidasguy?
You always have what I need man! :)
If you can help, that would be great.
Thanks,
Trwhouse

I'll have to check.
I know I have a new Gimbel.
There is another one kind of squarish like Kawasaki for a round headlamp. I think that one looks cool. New.
There is an OEM that needs some fiberglass repairs (minor, where the mounts are).
I have a 1989+ OEM
Maybe something else in the depts of the bike cave.

No Targa.
Here's a Targa - cheap. (Google search "targa fairing gs500"
I don't like that they have to mount to the handle bars. Won't work with clip-ons. All I have mount to headlight brackets.

Hi adidasguy,
No, that's just a replacement windscreen for sale.
It's not the whole fairing.
That's why it's cheap. :)
I'd love to see the Gimbel pix if you have some. Or whatever else you might have to sell. :)
Thanks,
Trwhouse

Here you go.
Not what you find in your underwear, but sounds the same:

I think this is what Junior has. I bought it used, but looks the same.

Yes zombie thread, but I wanted to update the URL given above, cause the link is a rare find :-D

It's now at:

http://www.skidmarx.co.uk/suzuki/30077-gs500e-gs-cockpit-fairing-kit.html

As the url implies, the actual product is called

"Suzuki GS500E - GS Cockpit Fairing Kit"


I think I prefer the look of the targa one, without the bottonm lip, though.  If I could actually find it now.
