**SOLD** **SOLD** **SOLD** **SOLD**


Hey guys,

I've been a member for a bit, lurking now and then, gearing up for a custom project over the winter.

In my cache of treasure acquired when I bought my bikes and spares I acquired this cool old fairing, which I have no plans for. Would be cool as hell if you were building an old slipstreamer-type bike, or even a vintage class top speed machine - it is pretty sturdy and well braced. I have photos of it loosely mounted on an H2. Screen is in very good condition although there is some cracking around the mounting holes in a few spots. Fairing itself is quite solid, weighs about 12 pounds I'd guess, has a baggie of the finest hardware store hose clamps that were evidently used to secure it to the frame under the tank.

I have NO idea if this is priceless unobtanium (I doubt it) or garage junk, so opinions about its origin and value are welcome. I'll also entertain most any rational offer, shipping additional, to the USA.

More as I get spooled up over the winter, but for starters I'd like to get this out of my den :-).

Thanks for the ID help and the suggestions as to it's worth. FYI Vesco is still in business in some or other incarnation and still sells old vintage stuff like this, We pegged the value closer to $300 and it is sold. Thanks to all for the interest.
