Thanks, my Canadian brother!
I'm following in your tracks. The fairing is cut down to almost the same dimensions as yours, with some differences in the screen. The dremmel is a lifesaver! I used the mounts from a slipstreamer windshield for the top and I'm in the process of fastening the bottom with aluminum strapping. I did a test fit this afternoon. Looking good.
The wall above my workbench has had pics of your bike pinned on since I saw your site.
Hope you don't mind copying yours, but they say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.:-D
(Well, I was going to do it anyway, but you pics provided a blueprint almost.)

i used the brake line attachement under the bottom tree of the forks to fasten the bottom of the fairing...are you mounting an 8in. light ?

Solo,
Nice GS!
I especially love the seat. Can you give me any details/specs on having mine modified to resemble yours?
Thanks!

Thanks!
all i did was: i got some foam, trimed it with a knife and brought the whole thing to an uphostery shop with a drawing i had done of what the seat should look like in the end. we choose some vinyl and weeks later...:razz:
wish i could do it myself 'cause i've had a couple done on different bikes and it seems very expensive...:shock:
