'72  500K:
lower fairing and seat pod are hand made, lower will be cut lengthwise and mounted at two or three points on either side. lower portion of pan will be held together with marine cabinet latches (stiff ball and socket). opening for dyno may become a round opening, as I'm thinking about finned covers peeking out from either side. Grille will be detchable and cut for oil filter housing. oil cooler will be angled and positioned between upper and lower. upper fairing is an ebay find, a dunstall 1/2 glass from the past is going to supply a replacement windscreen.

605 overbore  is coming back from the shop this week, I have a thick black cowhide I'm going to use to cover the seat.

         Hey, I'm interested to see the progress on this. Looks like you've put a lot of thought, planning and work in on this and I, for one, am definitely gonna be keeping an eye out for updates. Like the look that you're going for. Keep up the good work! LOL

rearsets are from a nighthawk, I traded out their pegs for the passenger pegs that were on my bike. The pipes have to be joined at the seam that is visible beneath the footpeg.

I'm going to wrap my pipes and line the inside of the fairing with insulating from inside boat motor housings.

more to come
