Hangout on a goldwing site a little bit, they love them rabid transits. I liked them when I first saw them, don't like them anymore. The one this rstnick dude has, that's actually a nice fairing

Which one, the Hannigan, or the Rickman fairing on my blue C2?

Have the Hannigan waiting for a future fit.
Here's a Hannigan fairing on a CB900F

The Rickman fairing I found on Craigslist.
Was fitted to a GS1000, and the brackets needed a little trimming to fit the smaller KZ650 frame.
No storage like the Hannigan and other fairings have, just thin fiberglass.

Fantastic looking bike. The fairing looks like it belongs.

If I didn't ride on dirt roads, my bike would have teeth too. :lol:

very nice. Almost looks like it could have been a stock option. The windscreen part looks perfect in height as well.

As for me, I tried to fit a small headlight fairing (Emgo I believe?) to my bike last year but my cruiser handlebars wouldn't clear it.
