[quote=I wonder about the Vesco fairing - can you get it new, or do you have to restore some old one?

It hasn't been made since 1979 or so. Which is interesting in that a 35 year old fairing complements a new bike thats retro. They show on ebay once in a while, usually from a BMW. The frame brackets are off Vetter fairings. I used a 1980 GS1000 bracket and cut then re-welded it. The oil cooler was the most difficult part to fit.
Here's the Vesco fairing on my 1982 Sabre back in the day
