No eBay APP ID and/or Cert ID defined in Kunena configurationWhere can you find a sport fairing?

I found this one on feebay but it says 7" headlight. I'm pretty sure mine measures about 8" across.

Or do these fairings sit right in front of the headlight instead of them fitting around the headlight?

If you have an OEM period round Kawasaki headlight, then that is the correct aftermarket fairing.

The size means it fits a standard 7" headlight.

Here's another yellow 1000 that appears to have the same fairing as the one wireman posted.

My headlight actually measures closer to 8" with the bezel. The last two fairing examples look like there is some room between the headlight and fairing while the first one wireman posted sits in front of the headlight. I do believe it will work however. I just want a little wind protection.

I have also looked for small universal windshields and have found very few. Do you guys know of any of those?

7 inch refers to the bulb.
if it measures closer to 8 with the ring you prolly have the 7 inch light.

leon

in checking 7 inch bulbs may measure 6 5/8 inch.

anybody know the o.d. of a 7" bulb?

i was looking at www.speedwaymotors.com/Speedway-7-Inch-T...Headlights,4407.html
