Has anyone seen this fairing kit on an XS

[Jafladd]

I took the front fairing off and the rear box. These two side pieces were in the rear box and I didn't see where they actually went. The sissy bar and seat are off and it had the twisted square chrome front foot.

Have you guys ever seen this setup?

Any idea what it might be worth?

I just took it back to the basics.

That looks like a Vetter fairing.

A forum search on 'vetter' will yield more threads...

It does resemble a Vetter Windjammer but I think it's a "clone" or copy. The two pieces you found in the rear box are lowers for the fairing. They would attach along that edge below the "Commuter" name in your second pic on both sides and offer some leg protection from the elements.

As far as what it's worth, I guess whatever you could get someone to pay for it, lol. Real Vetters can go for as much as a few hundred dollars. Personally, I never liked them much and have several hanging for the rafters of my garage that came on old BMWs I bought. Frankly, I'd be happy to get $40 or $50 for one.

Amazing how times and tastes change. In the mid-70s, we'd get over $600, installed, for a Vetter.

That's a lotta bux in today's dollars...

They aren't really my thing either, hince the removal. They are just ornaments in my father in laws garage until I figure out what to do with them.
