Windjammer on a R* ?? 3 Years, 2 Months ago  
Just out of curiosity...has anyone ever attempted to put a Windjammer "vetter" fairing on a R*? I had one back in the '70's and have always thought they were the best thing out there. I know they are not made anymore (the factory burned.. the story I heard)but I found a used one in very good condition and thought I would ask the question. Thanks for any input.

For those of you that have never seen one on a bike...I took this pic of the one I had back in the day (76 KZ900). I sold the bike to my best friend (brother-in-law)back in '80 and he has kept it in pristine condition. I took this pic about a year ago. He is now in OK and I am in VA.
