I like the old mead speed fairing but I think it's a very limited market as when they have been mentioned on here previously the reaction generally has not been particularly positive . Probably best placed to eBay it and hope you get 2 people bidding over it.

I actually really like them but then again I'm stuck in the 80's reading a new magazine called performance bikes with lots of M&P adverts and micron spannies for £50. Being bald I no longer have the mullet and my Frank Thomas paddock boots and my Simpson Star Wars lid are long gone.

Think £60 abouts right most specials dont have them standard bikes dont have them and they cost a lot to get painted so not many people will want it . Id stick it on the bay and just see what it fetches

My Mars Bar hybrid has one fitted. I got practically disowned when I posted a link to it a year or so ago. Too many purists on a site like this. But I like them as do others here. One was actually on ebay (yellow/red) last week. Had some bids on it then was withdrawn from sale so someone must have bought it by negotiation.

This fairing fits the 350ypvs 31K models, it may fit the lc models too but I originally bought it brand new around 1986ish and fitted to my B reg 31k which I bought brand new 1st Aug 1984. A painter started to paint it and only got as far as applying the base coat as it is now and never finished it, bit impatient back then. I got fed up waiting and just fitted it to the bike, rode it for a year or so then stripped bike to build a Yamagamma. This was back circa 1987/1988. It did look pretty good on the bike even though the paint never got finished, or at least it did to me and painted up would still look well retro good to me. Rich.
