Title: upper fairing mount for stay bracket
Post by: Donnie on October 02, 2013, 11:07:44 AM
 I am now well on my way to making my 1990 500e , Red and white addition to a 1990 500f. I am currently looking for someone who has a damaged 04 - 09 frame that I can talk them into cutting off the upper stay mounting bracket and any other related brackets that it might take to attach the fairing brackets to a 500e frame. So far the only other thing I am missing are the stock lft. and rt. mirrors.
Please PM me if anyone can help me out on this long awaited project... Thanks Guys...

I have the stock mirrors off my '93 just sitting around. Where are you located?

it would be alot simpler to just make the mount. Mine was made for my 90 F...until it got stolen...

All you need is a 1/4" or 3/8" piece of flat bar and weld it in place on the fork tube.

Weed, is it the fork tube or on the center steering tube?
