Was out to get parts to fix the boat, bilge pump and livewell pump, I spotted this stuff at a yard sale.
The black Shoei saddle bags and one of the luggage racks and backrest are now on the 75.
The white bags have no lids.
The fairings have some damage and there are no mounting brackets.
The white one has the front mount holes cracked, the left just a bit the right a bit more.
The black the mount holes are ok, but on the right the fariring is cracked inside and out just above the mount holes.
I have no idea what the fender came from.
I got the pile of parts for $30.
I guess I need to learn fiberglass repair.

I thought so. Here's some pics of the bags on the 75.
The shocks came from an 82 with the reflectors on them. They where in the way, so I turns the covers so they pointed straight back. You can see them in the shot from the rear.

jd750ace, On the turn signals, yes, that's the plan. I want to use lights that will run as running lights, turns and brakes.
tonyc, On the fiber glassing a friend has a big book on doing it. So I'm going to get his book and read up on it as well as search You Tube for vidieos.

Keep the pics coming Leo yes the LED turn stop run setups are the bomb (I think) I want to put some on my stocker. We should do a how to on putting them in stock turn signal housings too.
 
Good quality resin makes a huge difference as well. Don't use the harware store polyester based crap. Good quality structural expoxies are the way to go.

That will look sharp with 3 way lighting in there!
