    Hey all,

    I "scored" a crack-free 5 buck fairing at a vintage rally yesterday for my 750RL, but it didn't come with any mounting brackets or anything... Is there a method for installing it or it is simply drill four hole and use the appropriate screw/washer combo?

    I'm a ways off from installing but my google-fu was fruitless in finding any info :(

    A pic of the fairing would help determine what you would need to mount it.

    Sorry dude, I thought bikini was a good enough clue (no offense). Here's a pic:

    This looks OEM, for 5 bucks i figured why not. looks like the current bars on the bike will prevent installation, but i'm considering replacing those TBH.

    Is anyone running such a fairing with after-market bars? I believe mine are euro bars (PO), but they would never allow enough room for the fairing to mount...
