Don't let your Moto Guzzi garage with a Superhawk...

Leftover fairing from my Superhawk Streetfighter Project and obviously to much time on my hands... :)

 

Result a 2000 Moto Guzzi V11 SuperSport... (The Super comes from the Superhawk). This configuration works very well. More wind protection and slightly lighter steering with the fork mounted bikini faring removed.

I been thinking about trying out a CBR600 crash fairing on my V11

so I'm interested in a shot of the frame mounting solution.

 

any chance of a snapshot of the inside?

I'm away from home and won't be able to post a photo until I get back...

Here's a description of what I did.

 

Both the Superhawk/Firestorm and the V11 have fairing mounts on the front of the steering stem. I made two adapters (top and bottom) to mate the V11 mounts to the Honda fairing support.

 

The rear mounts are made of 1/2" by 1/8" aluminum bar bent into a "J" shape that mount to the fairing on one end and a oil cooler bolt on the other. The length will vary as they are used to tilt the fairing to the desired angle. This allows headlamp adjustment. I covered them in rubber tubing and they are bent to force them against the fuel tank. This reduces vibration.

 

Here is a drawing of the front (left) and rear (right) adapter. photos to follow...
