Is it possible to mount a Batwing fairing to our first gen bikes? Specifically the 83 in my case.

I guess anything is possible with the proper enginuity... Why would you want to tho?

Well after the 3rd,,,, no 7th,,,, or 17th attempt at plastic welding and gluing and almost more tape than original plastic, I have decided to strip Lucy down and give her a make over. I'm envisioning something a little less extreme than what zagger did but the end result will look nothing like show room.

Post pictures if you do it. Like Snyper316 said, anythings possible.

Take a look at the classified section. The last I looked Mralex had a the left and right main fairings posted at a very reasonable price. I've bought a couple items from him and the transactions were seamless.

 

It would cost a good deal more than he is asking and involve much more work to remove all the original fairings and mounts and install a bat wing.

 

Now, if you just want to, then go for it. I'd like to see the results.

The original intent was to do a full restoration. Then I got a crazy idea to just customize the poo out of her. I have been looking at second gens for long tours so I'm thinking Lucy will be my every day / weekend afternoon toy. Plus, it's just fun to do something different.

I've been thinking of adding a Gen 2, maybe RSTD, to my garage as well, but keep my 83 just cuz it's badass fast.
