Hi from Virginia Beach, Va

Hi all. Just found this forum from Craig Vetter’s website. I acquired a 1977 Kawi KZ650 in exchange for a hunting rifle from my Brother a year ago. Along with the bike came a Windjammer SS that he took off at some point in the early 80’s. I finally got it put back on last week. I love this bike and it only has 13,400 orig miles on her. The radio still works but I want to put a modern radio in its place. I may also repaint the WJ to match bike.

That bike is the perfect candidate for a Windjammer! You are going to love how it changes the riding experience.

That radio enclosure was sold under two names, "Cycle-Sound" and "Vetter-Sound." Very easy to swap out the radio with anything that is single DIN size.

That Windjammer is in remarkable shape. Even zooming in, I could see no flaws, even to the edge trim. And, the windscreen look like it doesn't have a scratch. Nice trade! Was the rifle in that good a shape?

Ken, thank you for the comments. My Brother received a never been fired 7mm Thompson Center rifle and a box of ammo to go with it. It was a great trade. I just replaced the speakers because the originals were roached. I do want to replace the radio unit but not sure where to start. I have the clam shell type unit. I read some instructions somewhere about removal to get that radio out. Hoping others here on the forum can help me.

Since his accident, Craig is slowly phasing out his website. His online store is pretty much gone, but he still has a lot of information available, including original mounting instructions.

His webisite is www.craigvetter.com.

Here is a direct link to the CycleSound instructions:

Thanks for those instructions Ken, I finally just picked up a Vetter Cycle Sound myself.

Happy I could help. They used to be very much in demand, but everyone nowadays has Bluetooth in their helmets (myself included). I have two CycleSounds sitting on my shelf that I probably should put up for sale.
