Hi all! Erling from Oslo here. Nice to see so many active Vetter owners here! 
I'm currently rebuilding my Kawasaki GT750 P1 - all the way from bare frame, and at the same time, fixing my Windjammer V - ser.#63-123124. It has some cracks, mounting bracket is missing and sound system needs an antenna - or at least the rubber part on it. Bike was originally Sonic Gold with black/brown tank & fender decal, but I probably paint it black with gold trim here and there...for now.
I've been talking to Andre at DiabloCycles(formerly Reproductiondecals.com) - he is reproducing striping kits for my fairing, and also some badges for Kawasaki Vetter.
From craigvetter.com online store, I understand that I can get the decals made by Andre, the chrome edging, windshield, windshield foam tape & windshield plastic bolt kit and the Hotcha repair kit.
Anyone know somewhere I can get mounting brackets? I know there are some available for the KZ750, but don't know if it will fit. Are the downward tubes on the two frames the same dimension, distance apart, angle against steering head? Probably not...
If You have pictures, measurements or just any hardware for such an installation, please let me know.
I might end up - as Mr.Vetter suggested, to fabricate the bracket myself. But a peek at other installations would be great help! So, a picture of a bracket for Windjammer V on an late seventy - early eighties Kawasaki 650-750 four bare frame, would be nice. My bike is the shaft drive model.
I know I'm asking a lot, but I don't find out unless I ask...Thanks
