Thats a good looking bike I don't know if anything would enhance the looks. Were you thinking of just a windscreen or a full blown fairing?

Hi Tigertile,
I just put a National Cycle Street Shield EX on my 1980 KZ 1000 Shaft. It depends on how much wind protection you want, but I'm happy with mine. I still feel plenty of breeze, but the main blast is gone. How tall are you? I'm 5'10" and this one works well for me. A taller person might still catch too much wind over the shield...
Anyway, I bought the Street Sheild EX through JC Whitney for about $120 shipped. I'll attach a couple of pictures to give you an idea of how it looks.
Good luck, and let me know if you have any other questions about this windshield (if you go the Street Shield route, I'd spend the extra 20 bucks or so for the EX model because it has a quick release system).
Good luck, and be safe.

I like the little viper windscreens. They look good, but I don't know how functional they are.
