Thanks! I'll save this article for reference!

I've ran an automotive bulb in my XS650 for 10 years and haven't had any issues. I considered another one for my Vetter but figured I'd look into a true motorcycle lens for comparison.

I also want to find a lens that throws out the correct light pattern. I assume an automotive bulb is not ideal.

I may just go with a H4 Halogen. I need to find the right housing/lens and bulb to replaced my sealed bulb that is over 40 years old.

Hello everyone. My 76 GL1000 is ready for the riding season. I noticed my headlight is not very bright and I'm looking for a replacement option that is brighter but also will not break the bank. I searched the forum the past few days for some answers and there were a few on here that installed...

76 GL1000 also here in Illinois. I acquired the bike in pieces 8 years ago and fully restored her over this time. I was not a full dresser guy but decided to mount the Vindicator fairing that I had stored in my shed to extend my riding season. I have to admit, the Vetter has really grown on me.

I never thought about utilizing a windshield mounting hole. I'll have to look into that.

Weather reached 60 degrees today. Instead of taking a ride, I got a wild hair and mounted my Vindicator to the bike. I think I like the look of this one better even though I do not have front turn signals.

Colder weather in store for us this weekend so I doubt I'll do any riding. I may fit the Vindicator on for kicks and see how it looks in comparison.

Thanks Brian, I feel late to the party though. I should have installed this fairing years ago and I also should have joined the forum years ago as well!

I picked up a Windjammer 5 last week and mounted it on my 76 Goldwing. I also still have the Vindicator that came with the bike when I acquired it years ago. What is the general consensus on which fairing looks best on my bike? I'm interested in your opinion. Thanks.

When I get home from work today, I'll look at that CB750 bracket closer. It's here and it's free. If I can't do anything with it, I'll grab a different one to play with. I saw on the craigvetter.com site that there is a company mentioned in CA that has the tooling to make Harley brackets. I...

I installed a different handlebar off of another model bike. It's about the same height but without the buckhorn pullback. I also ditched the double gauges for a single speedometer. Other than that, it is pretty well a stock setup up front. I have a radio pod for my Vindicator but no radio for...

I have a CB750 bracket that came with my fairing. I was going’s to toss it out but I’ll now hang on to it to see about making it work. Did you have any issues getting the fairing angle correct? I assume there was a lot of going back and forth.

Welcome aboard. I just joined as well. I just mentioned today about mounting my Vindicator to my Sportster. Did you fabricate your own mounting bracket?
