Could you put up a photo? I thought you were riding a UJM. We're referring to a windshield /faring like the Maier universal GPZ style faring. It might not work on your bike, if it's a cruiser, but some other style would.kar_the_terrible wrote:Hmm... I never really heard or pictured a fairing on a xs400/xj550 type (cruiser?) bike. How would one even go about fitting it on... and do they make stock ones or are they custom made....
I suppose ou could mount one where the crash bars are supposed to go... but where would the back/bottom be attached.. motor mounts?
Boosting performance.

thats a sweet bike.
I just installed the Viper fairing listed in the JC Whitney catalogue. Heres a Bad Pic:

Once I got it installed It seems to work ok and is really effective on the Hwy. However I still think my bike needs some mods or maybe I just need to lose forty pounds.
I plan to paint the fairing.

The only time I feel any real catharsis is on a MOTORCYCLE!
