sound cool, my latches are rusty, but my locks are fine.. so I could switch my locks into them I think...
as far as the backrest .. if the pan is good that will work for me.. my pan was rusted less than half..
sounds like I could use what ya got..
Thanks Bro.

hi scratch it good to hear from you i was begining to think they locked you up or something :mrgreen: ....i have an 83 an 83 interstate now ....old hack ride that was wrecked in the front quite a bit of fairing damage from the inside out where tim was launch into it ......put it all together and roadit some there still wreck problems but i road it enough to relize the heat issue with the fairing on ....

im a huge fan of your bike and im considering being a copycat .....theres is a lot of work in fixing the stock fairing and it also covers acess to a lot of things....

anyway i would like your impression of the harley fairing in use and your blessing in this option for me to consider as its would be hard to do somthing else without going down hill as your bike is pretty much standing on top of the mountain no place to go but down .....ido like the stock dresser look as i think 1100 dressers are the best looking of all dressed wings but this might not be the best option for this bike with all the damage .....if i was to do anything different i cant see doing anything other than what you have done ......

I also have a seat and two side covers that came with Gwen when I bouoght her. I don't need them, and if someone wants to pay postage, they can have them. What I DO need is a working speedometer/odometer that doesn't go "WHIRWHIRWHIRWHIR" every time I hit a bump. That noise, plus the fact that the odo and trip odo are inop is very annoying.

I got your seat today Dan and it's a beauty! Thanks again.... Like you Joe I love the look of scratch's bike(always have), so with the like new seat Dan sold me I'm going to remove the trunk and it's support rack and just go with the rear crash bars and bags. I'll post pics tomorrow.

~O~

I like that trunkless look too.
Soon as I can get my tired ass out there I'll put the trunk lights on a plug for easy on and off.

Hello to all.Sorry ive been so bizy with work.16 hr days and then trying to fix an old house,.Joe that would be so cool.dont know if you have a HD fairing.I know when I was checking on ebay,seen some for around $250.Cant wate to see some pics of it.if i can be of help Joe just let me know.Im not on much but will check my massages.Thanks again

Hello Joe.Ive never be on a naked wing but have been on bikes with no fairing.with the big honda fairing off. the bike fells so lite.(love the way it handels)The harley fairing i have on is just the outer shell and it dont weigh nothing.maybe 2 or 3 LBS if that.If you like the honda fairing becouse it dose a great job on braking the wind you might not like it.The harley fairing dose brake wind but not as much as the handa fairing.I for one do like some wind in my face.And the harley fairing will keep most of the bugs out of your teeth to.LOL.For me its the best of bout.and if i ever get anther gl1100 it would be the frist thing .put a harley fairing on it. I really like it.and i think it looks good on a gl1100.some will like it and some wont and no matter what you do to your bike some one will always have some thing to say about it.If i can be of help just let me know.thank Brian
