You guys really are creative with customizing your bikes. I have a '97 M2 I'm building for my 18 y.o. step son...gotta get him off my S1! We're going for a minimalist retro cafe racer look: narrow tank, no rear body work, race style single seat, low euro or clubmans bars or maybe crossroads, no turn signals, etc. We've noticed a number of partial fairings you guys are using. We're looking at the JC Whitney fairing that apparently attaches to the headlight...aside from Whitney what other fairings are available? Could you please post links to resources. We like the Whitney style fairing for its classic minimalist "rounded" look. They appear to be perfect scale for the Blast...I'm wondering if it will look to small on a Cyclone? Are there any versions that are slightly larger in scale? As an example we don't want anything as large as an S2/S3 fairing. Thanks in advance...keep up the work on the dark side jim | ||

Blast and M2 light are the same - and usually it is trimmed on the Blast. Get the circular style. You can find different vendors for the Cafe style fairing just by googling for it. Here is one http://www.sportingforless.com/product_info.php?pr oducts_id=31 EZ | ||

Thanks EZ...knew you'd pop in. Heck at $50, its worth the try. If it doesn't work, I'll post it in here at a discount. jim | ||

EZ...can you tell me how the above cafe fairing mounts? Catalogue says mounts to head light. A few close up pics would help thx jim | ||

I applied the Brackets to the same bolts as the headlight assembly was mounted to. | ||

Does it vibrate excessively? Is it flimsy or is it pretty solid? I'm wondering if the old v-twin will rattle it to death or crack the windscreen... | ||

well at the time it worked fine but I haven't had it on my Blast on 4-5 years at least...i sold me fairing to someone here last year and explained how it was mounted |
