Can anyone post images of the side fairing brackets ( perhaps with side fairing removed ) The project I am working on has no brackets attached to the frame except to the nose fairing. I have particular interest in the rear most brackets above the footrests..
All my firings need new tabs fabricating.
Many thanks
I have particular interest in the rear most brackets above the footrests..
There isn't a fairing bracket near the footrests. The exhaust shield on the left does have a bracket. (First photo) but on the right the exhaust shield will connect to two welded tabs on the muffler, and the forward bolt threads into the frame. The plastic filler piece snaps onto the frame tube, and has two holes that also line up to threaded holes on the frame, the upper of which it shares with the mid-side fairing
As for the others, as mentioned the mid-side fairing connects to the tail via two plastic posts, and upper front has a plastic post connecting it to the front side fairing. It shares a bolt with the filler piece on the lower front
The front-side fairings connect to the cowl with a bracket (Second Photo, note damage) There's also a bracket holding the upper rear corner of the fairing (Third Photo) as well there's a heat shield attached to the generator cover (Fourth Photo). I think there's also a couple small metal radiator side shrouds, but mine weren't present
Yes I know my bike is filthy. Still dusty from winter storage
fantastic images - just what I needed. Photo four shows a bracket I thought was fitted somewhere cvomp[letely different!! In fact, I don't have the heat shield at all !!
Is there a bracket on the left main fairing (rear mounting) which holds it away from the frame about 2 inches?
I can now see the right main fairing must bolt directly to the frame.
Thanks again - very helpful
No prob. The left front-side fairing connects to the cowl via a welded tab on the steel cowl frame, and the rest of the mounting is the same as the right. I'll see about getting a pic tonight
I found some decent images of the brackets when I was trying to pound them back into shape. You might even be able to order a couple rather than fab 'em
FYI the left front-side fairing connects to the cowl via a welded bracket attached to the headlight frame. Everything else is the same as the right. Also note damage. They should be at right angles. Previous owner really gave her hell...
