Please get this stuff out of my floor

Please claim this fairing so I dont have to step over it anymore. I hate to trash it but it is taking up way too mush space.I never tested the radio.PO said the radio worked.One amber lens is cracked. I have the harness for it.I have the bracket for it too.The bracket has slits cut in it to slip it over a crash bar.Works fine with the slits,or they can be welded up.Sorry,thought I had better pics of fairing.Can get some up if wanted.Pay for shipping and this monster is yours.




Comstars,wheels alone.$50 shipped anywhere.I cut the rotten tires off,so no worries there.

I have the complete rear disc setup off my '76.It was working fine when pulled,not frozen.May need rebuild.Dont know really.Complete setup=rear pedal w/bracket,rotor & caliper.$50 .

I have the factory swingarm of my '76 Super Sport.I understand it is longer than the standard models.$25 shipped.

I hate to scrap this stuff,but it's gotta go.Let me know if you wants any addt'l pics or info.Thanks

Which model is that? Price for shipping do you think to 49424?

Oh, and what's the model? SOHC or DOHC?

I'd love for you to say DOHC... otherwise I already have a bracket. But I want (need?) to scavenge stuff off that fairing for mine anyways.

The fairings are universal (see below, for details) -- the bracket is what mates them to the bike, and that is the part that varies.  All Vetter fairings, within a given product line are interchangeable:  Windjammer II/III/IV/Vindicator all fit the same type of brackets, so these can be swapped from bike to bike, as long as you have the bracket for that bike; the Windjammer V and QuickSilver fairings had their own line of mounts.  The Rooster fairing came after Craig Vetter sold the company, so that has its own line of mounts, as well.

If you need parts, here is your chance.  Shipping is a killer for these things, though, as they are very bulky, and somewhat heavy; be sure to remove the windshield before shipping, to avoid breaking it, and the mounting screws -- nylon/plastic, to avoid cracking the windshield.  Cheers!

I have a Windjammer SS, so not sure if that's a II, III, or IV. But I have a mostly good fairing, with the exception of a crack on the inside, and the wiring is kind of shaky. Since he's got a harness, didn't say if it's cracked (with the exception of the turn signal, which both of mine are decent) and has both side covers (mine is missing the right side), I can probably get this for cheaper than the replacement parts. Even with pricey shipping.

Also, my bracket came off a '72 CB750. Which is why I inquired about the bracket. If it's off a SOHC as I suspect, he can keep that and sell it, or I can take it and sell it to offset the shipping cost.

Sorry, I forgot about the SS model:  same molds for casting as the others.  In other words, it will fit the same brackets, as it has the same mounting scheme as they do.  Some of the different models had built-in turn signals, while other models had external signal lights mounted on stalks.  There were other variations, but nothing changed on the mounting scheme, that I know of, for these models.  

If you have any questions, drop an e-mail to Craig Vetter by visiting his web site:  http://www.craigvetter.com.  he also sells replacement parts, if you need any.  Cheers!

Not a problem! Bracket wasn't right for what I needed anyways. Not sure how 2 SOHC brackets can work for a DOHC man. :)

I know what I would do with that fairing. I would clean it and use it in my bed like a pillow
with my head in the center of the horseshoe, and have music at night.
