    Drop the ugly black '80s add on fairing and it may look nice :)

    Nigel Eaton was seen penning the following ode to ... whatever:
    Vetter fairing, innit?
    Well, for some strange reason I quite like the looks of the original
    Goldwing, but I tend to prefer them without the plastics out front.

    Do **** off. That's an (apparently) spotless Vetter Windjammer, /with
    lowers/. Classic, innit.

    Ho yuss. Apparently, somebody might have hacked the lowers around to
    make them fit a Glodwing-wiv-crashbars, but that's not the sort of
    person we'd speak to, is it children?

    Zzzzzzzz-Zzzzzzz-ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ Dremels rock.

    Yeah, but you're an acknowledged weirdo, so your opinions don't really
    count.

    For not snipping. My mouse finger is tired.
    Aw, you've gone and spoilt it again.

    It's got a back rest and a comfy seat. I understand the attraction of
    big tourers now.

    Timo, don't listen to him.

    I quite like the look of the older Goldwings without plastics.

    If I still had the CX, then I'd suggest putting the two next to
    each other, photo op. like. And then posting the picture
    to uk.rec.barndoors

    It was somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
    drugs began to take hold. I remember Nigel Eaton
    On my rack.

    with leather elbow patches and cuffs.

    Eh? The Executive (of which only 52 were made) had a frame mounted
    Rickman fairing. In black. Lester cast wheels are the other big
    giveaway.

    ITYMM the LTD, in Custom Candy Brown, with gold rims.
