work on the 1150 fairing to 83 1100E

[crag antler]

So I have gotten alot farther along in my mounting of the 1150 fairing onto the GS.
All I have to do now is finish fabricating the mounts and get the fairing painted to match and hot damn.\\/
Coming along real easy and should be a huge improvement.
I know it will be in looks.

Sorry for the blurry shot.

If anyone wants to try the same,let me know and I will help as much as possible.
If you have the complete fairing and frames,everything mounts right onto the 83 frame.
The 82 has a different frame studs,so...

It's actually kind of a Gun metal gray.
A transplant of skip's/Luke 1150.
Don't worry.
It's on it's way to the paint shop for matching silver metal flake paint.\\/ \\/

Real cool craig!
I've got an 1150 fairing on the way to throw on the 1000. I'm very interested in any little tricks you pulled. I think I'm going to have to fad up some mounts.

That looks awesome.

I'll get you some photos here on the mounts I made.
Really simple fabrication out of galvanized.
I may take the pieces to a metal shop and have them make something beefier for me.

Billyboy,

Do you have an eight inch headlight assembly coming with the 1150 fairing? I think it might look funny with the smaller 1000 headlight.

I think so. If not, my bike's got the 8 incher.

The headlight that is used with the 1150 fairing isn't the same as used with the headlight ears.

If all goes well I'm swapping headlights with Herman. We horse traded for some parts.

Billy's right, again.
The headlight on the fairing is mounted onto the fairing's frame.
Not the fork ears.
