85 1150 ES Fairing on a 78 GS1000 - Thoughts???

[Hoomgar]

Hey Hoomgar, you can get a brand new 'Wes Cooley GS' replica fairing from Airtech. I'm not sure if you've checked them out already? I don't know what the price would be? You'd have to e-mail them. Check it out at http://www.airtech-streamlining.com/suzuz/gs1000s.htm
Hope that helps!
Oh, in my opinion, the 1150 fairing looks OK, but the 1000S fairing would be much cooler!

They have no email address listed on their broken up web site and they are never there when I call them and do not return my calls. I was told by a bike shop that they are around $166.00 for the fairing from airtech without the visor, mirrors or mounts. Too rich for my blood. I am looking for a used one.

Thanks though

Hmmm :-k the price page doesn't seem to be working right now but I recall a price of about $180 to $190.

TEASE PIC! :twisted: :twisted:

Thanks a lot

And it works well too, with the 1000S 1" rise in the handlebars and that fairing I could ride that thing at a 100 miles an hour all day but is was still a good riding position for country roads and town traffic

I have after market K&N bars on my bike and don't own the original bars. What is this 1" rise you refer to? The stock bars were way higher than the bars I have on now and your comment makes me concerned that I may run into trouble putting the S fairing on with my current bars?

There were several different stock handlebars for the 1000, S handlebars have as I said about a 1" rise in them, the European spec ones atleast, 1000E was a bit higher and you guys in te states got way taller bars as standard, check out the is page: http://www.msnusers.com/motorgek/suzgs1000swescooleyreplica.msnw on my site to see some examples but from what I can see height shouldn't be a problem? :?
