Found a Liberator here in Germany. https://www.ebay-kleinanzeigen.de/s-anzeige/harley-davidson-sovelhead-imperator-original-vetter-fairing/1574774046-306-21794 But that price - 1.500€ (about 1.800$) is a little bit toooooo much. Maybe the word "Harley" turns the old fairing into gold. Dieter

Hi guys, just a short reply on an old thread.... You pay for a complete tyre but use it in the middle only.....you have to use it everywhere and it will last longer:)

Great, thanks - wasn't aware of the easy availability. Got them on amazon here in Germany. Dieter

Thanks Alan, now I know what the "headlight bunkees" should look like and can try to find something similar. Dieter

Hello guys, as I plan to replace the WJ4 on my Suzuki by a WJ5 I have recently started to restore my stock WJ5. Parts had been ordered already last year at Carol. There are some small cracks on the inner parts, the chrome trim needs to be replaced and there is some new paint necessary - I...

Last week the parts from Carol finally arrived - there had been some trouble with the German customs :mad: Dieter

Hi all, I use a LED headlight since nearly two years. It is definately better than any H4 bulb. I've installed a complete headlight insert - what needs the headlight housing to be modified. Some photos you can find here: vetterowners.com/threads/windjammer-4-on-a-93-suzuki-gsx1100g.1224/page-2...

New winter-project.... I will install a WJ V instead of the IV on my bike. Have just ordered some parts at Carol‘s online shop. Fairing will be painted all black with silver decals, the holes for lower mounting I want to close. Dieter

Latest modification: LED Headlight Dieter

I’ve now cut an opening into the headlight housing and made the first testruns. Seems like it is working...,. However - I need to make a better photo of the headlight installed in the bike. And - I believe a WJ 5 will look better. I already have one in stock.... Dieter

Hi folks, I've recently purchased a 7" LED insert to replace the old headlight insert. However, there is a little bir more room necessary. Easiest would be to use a heat gun - if the housing is some kind of thermoplastic. Any ideas? Best regards Dieter

Hi, as I had to see while installing my luggage - there are varying distances between frame and luggage. Therefore you should order those rubbers in diverse lengths between 15mm and 25mm to adjuste the luggage properly. Dieter

Better position for trunk

Hi, remove the old isolators, drill a hole in the frame, tap a thread and install new isolators like the attached. https://gummi-metall-puffer-shop.de/schwingungsdaempfer-typ-d-20-15 Dia about 20mm, height 15mm, thread M6 - should be available in the US as well in maybe similar imperial...

Out of garage

Completed... Need to adjust the trunk somewhat to follow the declining line of the saddlebags. And - I need the correct chrome bar on the side of the righthand saddlebag. Anybody willing to sell that in good condition? Dieter

I agree with you.... those orange turn signals disturb the design. Therefore I am thinking about grey/smoked lenses with bulbs in orange. Meanwhile the trunk is installed, too. The saddle bags are in preparation, they need some adjustment with the hot air gun.

Bike is ready, luggage to be installed this weekend. Sometimes I think a WJ5 would even look better...and indicator lights not in orange but with smoked lenses.... Dieter

Hi folks, here is again a very uncommon fairing under the name "Vetter windjammer" - even with Vetter stickers on it... https://www.ebay.de/itm/Windjammer-GL-1000-Honda-Tourer-Halbschalenverkleidung-Windabweiser-GL1/292435526703?hash=item441684042f:g:hv0AAOSwubFaYioF Does anybody know this...

Having a look into the storage compartments you can clearly see it‘s made of fibreglass. Dieter
