I am interested in this fairing only because of it's double headlights. Can't seem to find any info on it?

It looks familiar, but I can't place it right now. |

You guys are killing me! I'm in the process of creating Blue Thunder Deuce and was thinking of going with dual lights (HID of course). Have a couple of ideas but finding 1/4 fairings that support dual headlights are slim to none. I cam across this one that can be modified to be 1/4 mounted but it needs a windshield. |

I have looked at a ton of pics, no luck.
'94 Kawi zx7r is similar
'93 Suzi gsxr750 is similar.
I am not giving up yet. |

that red/orange bike is the same fairing i have on my bike. Now converted to dual HID lights of course.
If you pick up a fairing with no windshield, contact Mr. Gustafsson at www.bikescreen.com. He makes 100s if not 1000s of windshields and has tons and tons of windshields for after market fairings. he took 1 look at my fairing from the pictures I sent him and he knew the model number off the top of his head, along with a story about the first time he saw that fairing. Very nice, and easy to deal with. |

The twin headlamp fairing looks similar to an early Harris with twin cibie h/lamps to me.
I think Predator (originally Rickman) did one similar for a very short while.
I also seem to remember some of the early Powerbronze looked very similar also,
Its likely both Powerbronze & Harris still make modern versions. |

Tdem, how was the HID conversion to do? Any issues with voltage, etc? |
