What Bike is this Fairing off

[Signal]

Does anyone have any clue as to what the fairing on this XS 850 is from.

It might be the Airtech F1FU with a headlight fitted but I am not convinced.
The obvious thing would be to track down the man who built it and ask him but I suspect the answer would not be helpful.
Thank you in advance.

Found the owner's signature.



That could get you started.

Or in trouble...

I bet it is the Airtech.

Maarten Poodt aka Yellowrider is a hellava builder.

Get a towel (big one) click the link and drool for a couple of hours.

I think maybe that fairing was built for that bike.

Thank you for your replies, the research continues. That bike is certainly a looker and the sound of a triple is something else.
I found the builder and his website after I posted the question.

I sent Maarten an email asking the question, he replied that he made the fairing and seat unit. He is a very talented man.

That bike is GORGEOUS!!!! Might need to start a new build...wow.

Brassneck, yes I agree it has tempted me away from the 650 fold, I have a good donor bike and it even came with a set of Japanese model wire wheels. The research and accumulation of parts continues…

Hmmm..... Let me make a call. Im holding a 1980 runner for a guy so he could qualify for dshs. Its in my name. I'll let you know if he wants to sell it in a couple days. Solid runner. New rings, 1 over. Starter doesn't grind.

Oh...that's awesome.ya, let me know.
