    Hello from BC!

    If it doesn't come with installation instructions, I can send you some.

    Hello from BC!

    Rusty, I see that the bracket on eBay was sold. Was that you that grabbed it up? Ken

    Hello from BC!

    There is one on eBay in the USA right now that looks like it might be right for you. https://www.ebay.com/itm/191470885807?

    Hello from BC!

    The trick with mounting brackets is that, for the most part, they have no markings on them. So, you can't look it up and say, "I ride this model bike, so I need a number VTR-123456 bracket." Even Craig Vetter himself will tell you it was one of his biggest mistakes. The best thing to do is to...

    Installing a Vetter Terraplane.

    You can still find lot of original instructions on Craig website. I took a quick look at the Terraplane mounting instructions. It is not a great copy, but they may be helpful. https://www.craigvetter.com/pages/Vetter_Fairings/All_Vetter_instructions.html Best of luck and share pictures, Ken

    1980 Honda GL1100 with Vetter Set-up and Terraplane - Original Survivors - 6,000 Canadian Funds

    Looks like a great rig. I wish it were in my current budget, but I just picked up a 1974 BMW R90/6 that I am bringing back to life. Good luck with it.

    A call for Vetter serial numbers

    Depending on how it is broken, it may still be usable. If a top chunk is broken off it can be cut down. I have cut down quite a few of them. I find the factory ones to be too tall, so I typically shorten them by about 3-4 inches.

    A call for Vetter serial numbers

    Did you find your windshield? There are some aftermarket ones made still, but good used ones pop up on eBay all the time. All variations of Windjammer used the same windshield, just be sure to use the clips instead of the screws in the top holes.

    Hmmm...? Somebody on here had one. For some reason, I thought it was you. Have a great day and a Happy Thanksgiving.

    Mystery Ship in Motorcycle Classics

    Did anyone see the recent article on the Mystery Ship in the recent issue of Motorcycle Classics? I will post a link to the article below. Motorcycle Classics is really the only Motorcycle Magazine that I still subscribe to. It is extremely well produced on high quality glossy paper. The...

    78 KZ 1000 w windjammer IV

    That is really nice and complete...too nice to part out. Where are you located? Also, do you have a mounting bracket, and for which bike? I don't need it (in fact, I have a spare), I just thought it would be good information for someone that might want it. Ken

    78 KZ 1000 w windjammer IV

    I have salvaged worse Windjammers than yours. They are actually pretty easy to work on. The only source I know for turn signals is eBay. Those lenses are known to pop off with age, although I have never lost one. There is some debate about the best adhesive to reattach them. I've even seen...

    78 KZ 1000 w windjammer IV

    The original windscreen on those had some sort of hardened coating on them, Because of that, they are resistant to scratches, but incredibly difficult to polish. I tried to have a local glass shop make one years ago, but they couldn't get the curve right without it cracking. There are some...

    Luggage mounting instructions?

    Did you ever get your left turn signal sorted out?

    Picking up some parts this Friday

    I've heard some really mixed reviews about temu, but for four and a half bucks you are not risking much. My big question is what does this thing output to? It looks too tiny to have any sort of power amp in it, perhaps just a preamp... Do you have to port it into some other radio/receiver to...

    Picking up some parts this Friday

    If you are looking for a fun 'see if I can do it' project, I think you could make a great setup that would look period correct. However, Bluetooth technology has come so far it may not be worth the trouble. I took off my CycleSound years ago. I found that I had to blast it to hear barely okay...

    Hello from Florida

    I don't have dimensions, but Craig has a page on his website about mounting the Windjammer on later production bikes. https://www.craigvetter.com/pages/Vetter_Fairings/Home-made-mounts.html
