Hi all,

First off - you have, without knowing, helped me resurrect my '82 GL1100i from a slow moving gas guzzler to a precision machine. Thanks!

A friend has a 1981 GL1100 Standard (naked). This is the bike that converted me to Wings. He currently has a large windshield that he loves but it has seen better days and now has some chunks that are breaking out. He is looking for a replacement. I told him that I knew of a forum that has some pretty smart fellers so here I am.

Any suggestions for a good, large windshield for this bike? I think his old one was made by Vetter? He likes a tall, wide, full deflection kind of thing.

Thanks for your help!

replacement windshields are readily available for the Vetter fairings. Turples in Red Deer would be able to get you one, or you can contace Vetter
www.craigvetter.com would get you to their site. lotsa stuff still available!! I have a Vetter fairing and bags on my 1981 wing (was a naked)

good luck!!

I suppose having no fairing is not an option. It's a naked wing for a reason. let it be so!

As far as using a fairing instead - this thing looks great with just the windshield. He likes the protection of a large windshield though since he mostly rides in northern Alberta which can get pretty cold and has bugs the size of hummingbirds.



Ducky, thanks for the tips. I should take a run down to Turples. I'm always scared to go to a Honda shop 'cause I always mean to just pop in and find what I need but I always seem to leave with much more than that. Everything is just so shiny!

maybe something like a Slipstreamer ? http://www.phatperformanceparts.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=SLPS-S-03-C-M

Plexafaring is another, I think JC Whitney has them listed.

Here's a National cycle model I've used before on my old 750 I really liked for the extended skirt on the bottom of it. this link is for the model for the GL's version.
