Guest Ken Bruce Posted May 25, 2005 Posted May 25, 2005 i want to fit a touring fairing - powerbronze voyager or maybe a used BMW version? has anyone done this yet?
Guzzirider Posted May 26, 2005 Posted May 26, 2005 If you did not want your bike to become too ugly you could fit a V11 Le Mans fairing and keep the Guzzi looks. I have found it fine for motorway work and you can get a taller screen from MRA if you want. Guy
jrt Posted May 26, 2005 Posted May 26, 2005 I bet an old Rabid Transit fairing would look pretty cool on there.
callison Posted May 26, 2005 Posted May 26, 2005 I bet an old Rabid Transit fairing would look pretty cool on there. 52787[/snapback] I'll bet it wouldn't. I've had one in the shed for two years and still don't have the cajones to actually see how it would look on a V11 Sport. Somehow, I just don't think it would look right. I'm going to suggest looking at Pichler Motorcycle fairings.

Guest Ken Bruce Posted May 27, 2005 Posted May 27, 2005 Wanna buy a Rabid Transit fairing?... 52845[/snapback] if only i knew what it was? sounds like a ford van (transit - widely used white van for builders..) with a nasty disease that canines suffer...????? if it'll look like a dog afterwards this may not be far wide of the mark??? post a picture and we'll have a grin at the concept? maybe bungie strap it onto one of your fleet to give us the full effect! England awaits!
joe camarda Posted May 30, 2005 Posted May 30, 2005 Carl, I think that you should keep the fairing. Who knows? You might be able to mount it to one of the dozen or so future acquisitions that retirement in Oklahoma will surely bring. If not, heck...you could mount it on the front of your Toyota pick-up truck instead of the usual longhorns prevelant in Oklahoma. Show them backwoodsmen how things are done in California. But do not sell it to JRT :!: . He might attempt to mount it on his V11 Sport, replacing that nice R90S fairing. Joe

Joe 53070[/snapback] It's in Oklahoma in storage and I can't get to it until mid August anyway. JRT - are you serious? I'm not sure that it's the best looking fairing for a V11 Sport and it is really large. Kind of old fashioned even. I think it has an eight track in it...
jrt Posted June 2, 2005 Posted June 2, 2005 I'm serious, but I wouldn't put it on the sport. I do have G5 that it's perfect for...the lines match my sidecar. Why don't you wait till you get settled in OK. If you ever decide to get rid of it, then let me know. I don't want to push you into selling something you would rather keep. J

I think it looks pretty good on that bike. Dean
